<p>Yeah, I had 1 minute for the last 2 questions so I started to freak out. A 32 or higher in 99th percentile. A radian is like a degree, but it's a different way of measuring.</p>
<p>Neither am I, but I'm more...dreading my score. Even though overall, I don't suppose it was so bad.</p>
<p>To convert from degrees to radians, multiply by pi and divide by 180. To convert from radians to degrees, divide by pi and multiply by 180. </p>
<p>My state's full tuition just involves getting 'advanced' on the MCAS, a statewide exam. What state do you live in?</p>
<p>Do any other top english students find writing an essay in 30 minutes difficult? I have an A in College Comp. and got third in shool on my Voice of Democracy Essay this year (I'm a junior), yet I can't write well under timed conditions. Zoogies, I live in North Dakota.</p>
<p>I thought it was easy, but mine was pretty short (a page and a half) and I was afraid it wasn't long enough.</p>
<p>Mine was a page and a half too.</p>
<p>Don't pay for your scores early because about 1-2 weeks after the early viewing period, they offer viewing of scores online for free and early scores will not show writing.</p>
<p>I live in MA. It's really a piece of cake to get free state tuition, which is interesting because on the flip side, the PSAT cutoffs here are absolutely insane.</p>
<p>The 30 min essay wasn't that difficult, but the SAT one (more formal, etc) was a tough fit. Mine was a page and like five lines. So don't worry.</p>
<p>that comforts me. You guys are lucky you have full tuition programs. A few universities have there own programs, but no state wide thing.</p>
<p>Yea, it is quite difficult to get full tuition in North Dakota. Only the top 15 to 20 students are offered it. I personally wish my state's full tuition program would be off of the SAT. I did so much better on the PSAT this year with a 232. I'm expecting a 33-34 on the ACT.</p>
<p>Not all state universities have a full tuition thing? Hm.</p>
<p>I can't stop thinking about the act, it's like my brain has been programmed</p>
<p>Haha. I'd rather forget the affair as soon as possible.</p>
<p>I wish the act people were like oh you took the act, you're special, will have your score ready for you by the time you get home from your testing center</p>
<p>I wish the ACT people were like, "Woah, you're asian? 36!" :D</p>
<p>Well then they would go oh you're black a 0 for you then! <em>evil laugher by act</em></p>
<p>What positions did people take in their essays? And what were your other supporting evidence? What side?</p>
<p>I said no...can't remember all my supporting details.</p>
<p>i said yes, the school day should start later. it was stupid tho, i had no good support. i said that studies show that teens' brains start functioning later in the day or something like that, and that with less time after school, kids won't be involved in crime-related stuff, and they would have to prioritize their activities and learn to manage their time. and a bunch of other bs that makes no sense. o well, i know i got less than a 10.</p>
<p>zoogies: u say you live in MA. what is it like there? are all kids so into their academic stuff, or is it just like any other state. sorry, i am a bit off track. :)</p>
<p>Well...look at the PSAT cutoffs and the state's rep, and you'd say we're all academically geared. Look at the tiny high school of about 400 people and you would say..."Heeeeeeeeeeeeell no." </p>
<p>I guess it depends greeatly on the town you live in. There's my town, a small town with a poorly funded school system; then there's neighboring towns with effective school systems (poorly funded or not) such as Harvard (great name for a town) and Groton...and then there's Boston Latin. I think the larger schools tend to afford you much more opportunities. At a freshman for my half year in my old high school before I moved, I saw these posters about the bio-chem club, robotics team, so on and so forth. </p>
<p>At this school? Ha. Ha.</p>
