<p>How was it? Once I hit section 9 on the CR part, I had severe ADD and entirely lost focus. But I'm exhausted. The proctor kept giving me suspicious looks and he yelled at us for taking a sip of water in the class and made us go in the hall. He was horrible. LOL I brought like 24 pencils and they were all spreaded out on my desk. People were giving me funny looks but I told them i lose focus very quick of my pencil is dull. Yeah I know I'm strange. :) so were there any interesting people?</p>
<p>I have the same deal about pencils! =)
My proctor was so… idk, she irked me. Some random kids ended up like knocking on the window in the middle of our test (which aggravated me, because I was like in the zone-j/k). Of course later on, in the last two minutes of our break, about a thousand kids walked into our room to talk to the proctor. It was maddening. =P</p>
<p>Had the same proctor as the March SAT. He’s a cool guy, lets us eat in the class and he talked about baseball during breaks. </p>
<p>The two people sitting in front and behind me both smelled really bad though. I had to write the test with my face on my arm for half the time.</p>
<p>My proctor was obnoxious … However, I was sitting between two friends I knew at the SAT place (a school I don’t go to) so it wasn’t as bad.</p>
<p>I burned out on section 5, which sucked because it was a CR. I had three proctors, WTH?</p>
<p>i live in smallest province in canada, lol so we had one proctor and three test takers me included.</p>
<p>i sucked at CR did not answer at least 10 questions cuz ran out of time. proctor did not really help, cuz he kept cutting us short 1/2 minute or 1minute</p>
<p>The CR = DEATH. That’s about it.
ESPECIALLY the celebrity passage (section 9 for me) i just totally lost my concentration then and did not understand the passage at ALL.</p>
<p>But I had a math experimental section, so i guess that’s good…right?
It’s my 2nd SAT and I still don’t quite understand what the experimental section is for…</p>
<p>i think experimental is to determine the difficulty of teh question…cant think of what else it might be for.</p>
<p>Omg thats exactly how I was! The celebrity passage sucked. I had no clue what it was saying either. I thought I would be managing my time efficiently when I decided to tackle the CR section first. Turned out I wasted more time trying to understand the passage. How do you figure out the experimental section?</p>
<p>First of all, my proctor short-changed the room by about a minute on the essay, which was especially annoying as I was half-way through my last sentence. 4 C.R. sections severely affected my concentration as I got to the celebrity passage (could not understand the passages ughh). And stupid tunnel-vision for not being able to see below choice d. Oh, and for figuring out the experimental section, each c.r., math, and writing section is different in each way (different questions, different number of passages, etc.) so you can tell if you’ve taken a section with a similar structure.</p>
<p>There was a kid at my test center who decided to void his test after finishing section 9…</p>
<p>wow why would he do that?</p>
<ul>
<li>The proctor wrote on the overheard projector screen thinking it was a whiteboard…marker didn’t come out</li>
<li>A girl said she was going to pass out between the 9th and 10th sections, they called an ambulance</li>
<li>a GUY behind me started crying</li>
</ul>
<p>I forgot to set my alarm
Somehow, I miraculously woke up at 7:15 and got myself to the testing center by 7:35. Needless to say, I was extremely flustered :/</p>
<p>man u cheeter. that math teacher should be fired. you must hav given him head or something.</p>
<p>The guy sitting in front of me was ridiculous (passed gas continuously, tried to cheat very obviously, talked aloud when the proctor left the room for a few minutes during one section-- not that the proctor should have done that). The guy sitting in back of me was laughing when this happened. Of course he would; I was sitting in between -__- and I absentmindedly dropped and lost my registration ticket 10 minutes prior to the whole gridding in your info thing… =[ Not a very good first experience.</p>
<p>My proctor almost gave us ten minutes instead of 25 because she didnt pay attention to the time on the CR section, and then while leaving i heard a girl say she made up a story how her moms friend was killed by a drunk driver on her essay.</p>
<p>LOL @ Dmitriy.</p>
<p>Wow that is actually really funny. </p>
<p>I drank ~6 bottles of water so I had to get up during the test (losing time) and use the bathroom during like 3 sections. I have to drink water while I test it’s a habit.</p>
<p>I took subject tests, but at some point between the tests, the proctor was like, “Well, just think - by this time next year, you’ll have almost completed your first year of college!” Uh…it’s <em>May</em>…I think it was all juniors/maybe sophomores taking it…so then everyone laughed at her, but she just thought we thought she was clever…</p>
<p>Ugh. I had a bad start. When the SAT admission officers were open they separate the students with last name starting A-L and M-Z. I didn’t hear them clearly and line up with those A-L instead… so after waiting a 45 minutes, I end up back in the line(which was O_O long) and waited another 10 minutes to get into the building. <em>bad omen</em></p>
