<p>@GodsGem322‌ I hope that works out for you!
I’m really hoping to improve my 30. I need higher than that to be competitive to most of the schools I’m applying to. </p>

1042

<p>SOOOOOO are we sharing scores to estimate curves? I don’t know how guessing the curve really works…</p>

1043

<p>Still registered here in San Francisco ughh</p>

1044

<p>@PilotKhyle‌ i think that only really works for people with subsection scores in the 33-36 range, but if you belong to that demographic by all means do it.</p>

1045

<p>Here we go</p>

1046

<p>ONE HOUR REMAINING</p>

1047

<p>@GodsGem322 Why do you want 29 so much?</p>

1048

<p>One hour to go!</p>

1049

<p>@1golfer1‌ merit $$$</p>

1050

<p>@1golfer1‌ I was 10 SAT points away from 8k, and if I get a 29 I get the 8k scholarship instead of the 6k. If I get a 30 I’m eligible to compete for full-ride.</p>

1051

<p>i am really considering just going to bed and waking up in an hour </p>

1052

<p>Any hope in getting scores tonight if I’m still registered? </p>

1053

<p>@GodsGem322 We have similar prediction scores. Best of luck! It would be a miracle if my science was 30+</p>

1054

<p>wait, but its 12:04 on the east coast, so shouldn’t it be sooner?</p>

1055

<p>@gminor‌ Ahh I see! My only past subsection score above a 33 was a 34 in Reading</p>

1056

<p>Last time I got my scores it was in the morning so don’t get your hopes up. I think I got between a 29-31…I just want the wait to be over!</p>

1057

<p>while you guys are all here… I need a genius to answer this probability question. So here it is. If you have a bag of marbles with 18 total marbles (7 red 6 white 5 blue) and choose 4, what are the odds that you choose exactly 3 red given that the first one chosen is red. With no replacements. Ugh my school is impossible. Whoever figures it out gets a perfect score on this test no doubt.</p>

1058

<p>@GodsGem322‌ what college/ scholarship is that for?</p>

1059

<p>30!? Full Ride!? I thought that there was nothing out there until you it a 34 :frowning: That’s why I’ve been aiming so high :/</p>

1060

<p>That’s crazy!! Hopefully you get a 30! I got a full tuition scholarship with a 28 (thanks to my grades), but I am hoping I can do better.</p>
