I woke up this morning to find I did terrible on the exams:

Physics - 580
Math 2- 580
Literature - 560

Good lord… Basically the week before was hell week for me - I had AP finals, state testing, and the flu. I scrambled to study by doing practice tests and explanations all nighters a few days before.

I’m only a junior, in Conceptual Physics and Honors Math Analysis. So I definitely have to retake all three… I plan to try for UCLA, USC, UCI, Berkley, with SLO and Cal Poly as backups.

So my questions are:

Will I have time to retake it at the beginning of senior year for applications?
How do I study? Looking at the scores thread it seems everyone is at the top of their class or something - apparently 700 is a bad score from the reactions. Any strategy you use will help whether is it a practice test a week or something…
For my colleges listed will I be required to send in ALL my test scores?
