Are you reading the passages in the science section? The only one that requires actual reading is the passage that gives the beliefs of scientists, students, etc. You really don’t have to read the others because you can figure out the info most of the time with just the graphs and tables.
Even though I’m scoring mid to high 30s on practice tests, I will probably get like a 30 on the actual thing
Gah, I’ve been grinding math practice for the last 3 weeks and I can’t get a score above a 30 to save my life. Keep making all kinds of stupid mistakes. I’m confident I can score 30+ in E/R/S but I really don’t want math to be an anchor for me again this time around x_x
Completely agree with @EF431x
I’m in the car getting a ride to my test center now… unfortunately the five ap classes i take prevented me from taking a FULL practice test.
@bsdsj22 where do you live? And how was it?
Took the test … didn’t feel as though it was easy… lenient curve I hope…
@Dfsandbfstrees which section was hard? All of them or did any stand out? And where do you live?
Just finished. The reading test I lost focus so I kind of sucked… guessed on a few. I hope the reading test has a lenient curve. Are we allowed to reveal form numbers?
@bsdsj22 How did you take it already? Isn’t the only administration tomorrow at 8 a.m?
I live abroad.

At my test center getting ready to start…hope this goes well cuz it’s my last time taking.
Is anyone home yet? Son was testing this morning and getting lunch with friends so I haven’t head from him.
How did it go??
Do you all think there will be a curve on reading?
Reading sucked. Science sucked. I thought english and math weren’t bad. Writing was a stupid essay
My super score was already a 34 before I took it today, and I’m diagnosed w ADD but never thought it was necessary for extra time. After today’s exam I definitely change that perspective there’s no way to raise my super score unless if I get all 35/36 so I’m done with it. Got national merit level PSAT score this year so now I’m banking on the May SAT haha. I just hate th pressure put on these exams now. It’s still very subjective to who has the time and resources available to invest on prep and taking it multiple times. It’s virtually impossible to reduce a human being to a number, but sadly our society is always trying to quantify anything in order to process information faster. Ultimately it is just killing the youth. FTSIOb
The reading section got meeeeeeeee
-English. Very nice, finished with 5 minutes left which is rare for someone as slow as I.
-Math. I was cruising faster than ever until the last 10 questions ruined my chances for even a 31. Very difficult ending.
-Reading. My god arguably the hardest reading I’ve seen (taken 5 times). Didn’t even have time to glance at passage 4 after a grueling passage 3.
-Science. Hard to finish and painful. Ran out of time with an entire passage remaining. All passages contained very in-depth information.
Hoping to break even at this point as that was insanely difficult.
Reading wasnt too bad for me, i just got stuck on this one math question and wasted a bunch of extra time :((((
