What I hate about the SAT's (who agrees) Options

[JerzDevil]

1)They are too long. 2400? Why not cut it down to like 1400 instead?

2)Why do they have time limits? That's the biggest thing I hate about the SAT's. SAT's require students to do the testing slowly with much concentration in their best efforts to do well and pass. Each section is like 25 minutes. That is too short. Also, the sections are pretty long with long passages and hard questions that require a lot of thinking. The time limit should be like 45 minutes per section.

3)They are pointless. If a student got straight a's with like one B (not saying I did) throughout his whole 4-year high school career, why does the SAT's matter to him and the college he or she's applying to. . Grades are more important and he/she should definetely get into a good college.

I got a 2130 on my SAT.
SAT 2s are NOT easy peazy. I don't know where you got that from. I sucked on my SAT 2s and it's not like I'm stupid...

Did u study for SAT2's? They're supposedly easier because you can study for them.

No, I didn't study. I think it's pointless to study for standardized tests. They're standardized because you're already supposed to know it.

I actually thought I did pretty well until I looked at the percentiles. I got a 680 on my Lit one and a 660 on my Math Level II, which are 72nd and 54th percentiles, respectively. I'm used to being in the 90 something percentiles so those came as a bit of a shock.
