<p>that awkward moment when your psat score drops 15 points</p>
<p>I have two tomorrow and five more yes 7 midterms yesszzzz. No I have a headache right now I don’t want to take these midterms.</p>
<p>I also have them late january, and with block scheduling i only have 3 since i only have math, english, and history as academic classes right now</p>
<p>@calchong I will also have 7 in January.Really not looking forward to it…!</p>
<p>I did english and algebra 2 today and I actually feel really confident. on english on the antigone and death of ivan illych portions I was not feeling so confident… during algebra people were in the verge of tears on the 5 world problems that were worth 40% of the grade (they were very difficult)… LOL but I think i did fine which is good. im going to fail AP human geo tomorrow though I want to throw my book at the wall.</p>
<p>Ugh, I’m sick and couldn’t take exams today… I’m going to have to make them up after school in January…</p>
<p>I get to find out what I got on the PSAT today.</p>
<p>I got my (official) score today! 216: 70 CR, 75 M, 71 W.</p>
<p>@topaz1116 Congratulations! Mine wasn’t as good as yours: 192, 64 CR, 67 M, 61 W.</p>
<p>I only got a 136. Did any of you prepare? I didn’t at all but I know a lot of kids who didnt very much and got around a 190-200</p>
<p>I’m so jealous, I find out Thursday…</p>
<p>I got a 179 (pretty sure, I’ll be a 100% certain on Friday), and I’m really mad at this score. I was hoping for a 190 at least! THE CRITICAL READING KILLED ME.</p>
<p>and what sucks more is that we aren’t even taking the same test next year.</p>
<p>I didn’t really prepare; don’t worry, @livelaugh7, I have friends who did a lot worse (also because of CR). </p>
<p>I’m also quite mad about the whole next-year thing. I’m going to have to study for the PSAT and SAT separately.</p>
<p>But on the bright side, everyone’s going to fail next year. </p>
<p>Which lowers the curve.</p>
<p>@topaz1116 so true.</p>
<p>Why aren’t you going to take the SATs during senior year?</p>
<p>@livelaugh7 I might take the new SAT spring of junior year, but I’m probably also going to take the old one just because. Most people at my school take the October SAT as juniors, anyways. I don’t want to put any unnecessary stress on myself senior year. My testing schedule is as such:</p>
<p>March of sophomore year: ACT
June of sophomore year: SAT II Math 2, Chemistry
October of junior year: Old SAT
April of junior year: New SAT, SAT II Physics (maybe a language? either Spanish, which I’ve taken classes in, or Latin, which I’m going to self-study)</p>
<p>I’m not going to retake any of the tests; I trust I’ll have done enough practice beforehand, and I’m taking three tests anyways.</p>
<p>I had a sophomore class meeting today, and we pretty much finalized my junior/senior year schedules.</p>
<p>Junior:
H. English
AP Calc BC
US History
AP Physics 1
AP Environmental Science
Journalism (if I get in) OR Spanish 4
Marching Band</p>
<p>Senior:
Expository Writing and Critical Reading (like an H. English course, basically)
AP Physics 2
AP Chem
Multivariable Calculus/Linear Algebra
Journalism (if I get in) OR Creative Writing/Public Speaking
Gov/Econ
Marching Band</p>
<p>@topaz1116 good luck to you! Do you need an AP Calc background to take Math 2, or is an honors pre-calc knowledge sufficient?</p>
<p>I might actually take the Old SAT, I’m sort of debating that still. </p>
<p>@livelaugh7 Honors Precalc is sufficient for Math 2; that’s when most people take it. </p>
<p>My mom is still mad about my schedule because I’m taking APES instead of Bio.</p>
<p>Hahahaha no. I hate Bio (specifically organismal biology, which happens to be a major part of AP Bio; I love genetics and that stuff) with a passion. </p>
<p>I just got my PSAT score:
217
70 CR
71 M
76 W</p>
<p>I expected to do better on the math portion but expected to do worse on the writing so it’s still pretty good.</p>
<p>@topaz1116 I’ll probably take Math II then this June.</p>
<p>Your current schedule?</p>
