Rewarding yourself for a high score

<p>Has anyone decided that if you get above a _<strong><em>, you will reward yourself with _</em></strong>__?</p>

<p>I told myself that if I get above a 33, I will buy myself a Chanel purse. I told myself that if I get above a 30, I will buy myself Chanel sunglasses.</p>

<p>What are yours?</p>

<p>Probably GTA IV, I decided to not buy it before ACT so that I won’t get distracted from studying.</p>

<p>^^good choice on not buying GTA before the test…i’ve put about 45ish hours into it…would have been way better off studying</p>

<p>same here with GTA though I’m buying it before getting my scores back :D</p>

<p>ill probably etabretsam.</p>

<p>IF it’s either 1350 with SAT(come June 26th) or like a 29-31 on the ACT, then my parents would give me a 52" Samsung LCD, but I’m going to college next year, so what’s the point of buying such a big TV for one year?</p>

<p>I’ll probably just buy a PS3 with Metal Gear Solid 4, that is if I get the score.</p>

<p>I told myself in April that if i got a 34, then I would never take this test again. Well, I got a 34 and said to myself that I was done with his test. BUT, I got talked into the June one last week because I could possibly do better, and even if I don’t, no college will ever see the score in this case. So it was no-lose for me. But, not matter what now, I’m NOT taking this stupid test ever again!!!</p>

<p>The fact that I won’t have ANY standardized until May next year is the greatest reward I could ask for.</p>

<p>That is nice.</p>

<p>The fact that it gives me a better shot at good scholarships and also that I’m done with standardized tests till the MCAT is good enough for me! :slight_smile: I just really hope I get a different score. My October scores were: eng35, sci27, math27, read32, cum30. Then my december scores were: eng33, sci26, math28, read34, cum30. grrr!</p>

<p>if i get a 30, ill get a nag-free parents for a year. That’s good enough for a senior</p>

<p>seems like your science and math are the ones bringing you down… what math and science classes have you taken so far?</p>

<p>and taking a lot of practice tests with math strategies will help your math score jump at least 3-4 points… and for science, just take a lot of practice sections… you’ll start to recognize some similarities</p>

<p>i’m gonna take some time off to do something I love: art, and play music. that’s something I haven’t been able to do in a long time (maybe a little shopping won’t be bad for me either)… then i’ll go back to college/scholarship searching, and school stuff.</p>

<p>i’m forcing myself to be happy with any improvement, even if it is just one point. If I do really well, then I’ll probably buy myself a HUGE ice cream sundae :]</p>

<p>Ice cream sounds good for me too! :)</p>

<p>if i get a 32, i am going to pee my pants…</p>

<p>lol same here nmatth…</p>

<p>i set no goals for myself, but here is what my parents told me. “2350+ on SAT or 36 on ACT= a nice pat on the back and a dinner at a restaurant of your choice.”</p>

<p>dang lol my parents would have that 36 stamped on their backs</p>

<p>i wouldn’t put it past my parents to tattoo themselves if i got a 35 or 36</p>
