So I searched for this topic and interestingly did not find one. You would think someone would have made it already. Hm.

What'd you get on your testssss?

I just upped my SAT score from 2050 to 2130! Wooooo! But I only got a 29 on my ACT.

Ohhhh, Lord.

I have to take the ACTs in eight hours and six minutes, and it was only thirty one minutes ago that I realized this.

Yay.

Kaycee, why are you worried? ACT is easyyyyy. Do not stress. Just walk in there and be like, "Wassap ACT, I'm about to own you."

Well for my first time I got a lousy 1300. I do have a lot to improve on.

I havn't taken the ACT yet...

High school GPA is rising, with the addition of the first marking period it's now up to a 3.7


On the new one or the old one?...

I took mine over two years ago, and the grading scale has changed since then, obviously. I got a 1370 on SAT I, which is pretty good. My classmates and I compared scores, and mine was definitely above average in comparison. I did well on my SAT IIs too. I got a 790 in writing, which is 10 points less than perfect. ;)

laugh.gif So I read that right before I left for the test, and during break I randomly remembered to look at the test booklet and be like "Suckaaaaaa" xD

So the English was so easy it was boring but the Science Reasoning was death. Just...death. I did it all wrong! I tried to understand the material - no, no, no. Just read the graphs, woman! Geezus. -.-

What year are you, Thomas?

AGREED. I could have gotten a 30 (or higher) without the science section. I totally ran out of time and didn't even get half of those problems...
The English and Math were soooooooooo easy though :/

I sucked on my Subject Tests too. I don't know how they figure the percentiles out, but if that's true, the people that take Subject Tests are freaking geniuses. I got a 660 on the Math 2 and a 680 on the Lit...54th and 72nd percentiles respectively. Suckage.

It's 36. My ACT score was pitiful because I guessed on the whole science section. I'd have done well otherwise...but it was a pain in the ass, and I didn't feel like bothering.

What advantage do the subject tests give?

Some schools require them. But what I didn't know until it was far too late is that some schools will give you credit for them, depending on your score, and I think they're generally much easier than AP tests. Probably way less expensive, too; I really regret not taking any now, seeing as I did miserably on most of my APs.

You never know! I only got a 162 on my PSAT and then got much, much higher than my expected range on the real SAT.

I thought the Subject Tests were hella hard and I didn't do that well on them. I got a 680 on the Lit (72nd percentile) and a 660 on the Math Level 2 (54th percentile!). Yeah...those kind of sucked.

LOL same here...oh well I got my scores and I'm totally done with SAT. How come no one is posting their scores hmm?

Edit;
WHATEVER.
1310 (: / 1940 ):
Happy I broke 1300 for CR&M subscore, not happy at all that I didn't break 2000.
And one of my subject tests was reallyreally good and my other one was reallyreally bad.


1940 isn't bad at all! Man, you guys are relentless on yourselves. What do you guys think is good?
