<p>I’m taking the January SAT for the first time. I’ve been doing some math practice, but I still have so much to cover that I doubt I’ll finish in time. I’m also just going to study a lot of vocab for critical reading, but I doubt I’ll have all of it memorized in a month. Probably won’t have time for any writing practice, but that’s my best section. I’m definitely not expecting myself to achieve my best score; I’m pretty much just taking it to see where I’m at. After the test, I’ll probably continue my studying and then take it for (hopefully) the last time in March. If I still can’t get a good score, I may try again in May.</p>
<p>And I’ll be doing the same as SirSamAlot. Math II and US History Subject Tests in June.</p>
<p>If I can score 2000+ I will be gold. Only one university I am applying to requires SAT subject tests (Duke), and that’s a complete reach.</p>
<p>I’m hopeful that my SAT I score will be up before March then the June SAT date will be the day I take the Math II and Biology M subject tests. Going for a 750+ on the math and an 800 on the Bio.</p>
<p>I don’t think any of my universities require SAT IIs, but I’ll still be taking them to improve my app since my ECs are weak. I’d be really happy with a 750 on both tests. Even a 700 would be okay.</p>
<p>Is it true that you pay $50 to be there, and then you can take up to 3 tests? That’s what it seems like to me, so I’ll probably take the Physics test too, just to see what I’ll get since it’s included in the price.</p>
<p>I’m taking Math II and US History also. I mean I take my APUSH exam in May so I’ll still have all the info fresh in my mind and I’m self studying precalculus right now so I should be able to get 750+ on both tests.</p>
<p>@followthereaper: That’s not what I have heard. My friend took two subject tests and paid only ~40 dollars. </p>
<p>Hopefully I will do very well on the Bio M test, I have AP Biology right now. It is killing me but I am learning so much. As @tinyT said, studying for the AP exam will greatly help studying for their subject test equivalent. I can’t see the subject tests being too incredibly hard, compared to AP exam that is.</p>
<p>We’ve been talking all year. I know she meant it because she’s pretty shy about those things, and she had the balls to even mention it. But I just don’t know if she’s worth it anymore. Inside, I always had a place in my heart for her… But my whole heart tells me “she didn’t want you first, now she wants you… why?”</p>
<p>We can’t really tell you if she’s worth it; we don’t know her, the true extent of your (current) relationship, etc., but don’t forget that she’s probably been wrestling with the same thoughts that you are. Maybe she did fall for you again because you’re the new you, so to speak, but is that necessarily a bad thing? I don’t know; if it were me, I would take the chance. </p>
<p>I’ve only gone out with two guys because, generally, I don’t like “taking chances” when it comes to things like this (I’ve rejected more people than I’ve fallen for, but this is also due to the fact I’ve only fallen for a handful of people in my life), but both relationships taught me important lessons, and even though both of them would be (and are) considered mistakes by a lot of people, I’m glad that they happened.</p>
<p>Plus, you’ll get to stop asking, “What if … ?”</p>
<p>Sorry for all the trouble, but my friends aren’t really any help lol. They keep telling me to go for it… But they really don’t understand how I feel. I know it sounds bad, but she caused me so much emotional distress in the past, especially to see her turn me down and then go date another guy… To then tell me she likes me? I have a bit of choice now, as the “new” me was a much better than my previous. She messages me daily, and her messages are like the first thing I wake up to (she wakes up early and since it’s christmas break, i sleep till like 12 lol) and it’s cute and all, but I really just don’t see her as I used to before. </p>
<p>Thanks for your advice though, I really appreciate it, trust me.</p>
<p>By the way, for those of you get free or reduced lunch you are eligible for SAT waivers. I can take up to two SAT I tests, six SAT II tests, plus two ACTs for absolutely free. You can also get up to four application fees waived, so you cam pretty much apply to four top schools for no cost. Just thought I’d let you guys know, because I only found out recently.</p>
<p>There’s nothing to apologize for; I’m just sorry I can’t be of much help :/. Closest situation I can think of: I had feelings for one of my best friends for 3 1/2 years (but we were both shy, he stopped liking me I still liked him, blah blah blah), although I’d want to throttle him if he suddenly told me that he wanted me again (and wouldn’t accept), haha.</p>
<p>Whatever choice you decide to make will be for the best :)</p>
<p>@Rob: Woooah, six? Awesome! I thought it was just two like the SAT I.</p>
<p>@lldm21 By 6 I think he means, 3 subject tests from one date, and another 3 from another date. </p>
<p>And to add to what the other user said, you can also get an SAT Q&A service for free (I believe that’s when collegeboard sends you the test and the answer sheet so you can see which questions you got wrong).</p>
<p>This year is so hard because of the new grade scale change. 20% formative (Quizs, homework) and 80% summative (Quiz, projects, finals, test). Apparently, this is suppose to help failing students, but this is not a fair scale My grades has dropped significantly, I only have 1 A+ and that is in gym lol ><strong><em>< Teachers said that it did decrease the failing students, but it also decreased the A+,A,A- in their classrooms. Like, on a test, you get one question wrong, you automatically get an A or lower. This makes me so mad, I wanna punch who ever is responsible for this in the face .</em></strong>_____.</p>
<p>I wish I got an A+ in gym. Last year, I got a B. It’s because the board wanted to add a writing curriculum in physical education. Ugh I wrote more essays in PE than in English class. And we had so many quizzes and tests. PE was such a BS class and I hated it.</p>
