<p>i think i am gonna cancel...can anyone telll me how to do taht
and when u cancel ..does it show up when u send ur score to colleges?</p>

<p>can someone refresh my memory on the African-American woman, marginalized ques. I can't remember atall!</p>

<p>HateSat, don't cancel yet, you can always take it again. It seems like you've done well in W and M.</p>

<p>HATESAT, nope it doesn't show up. Get a request in writing to CB before Wednesday to cancel.</p>

<p>i have to cancel..i already took it 2 times...
first tiem in sophmore year...i shoulda cancel. that..but i was stupid back then. i got a 1790 on that</p>

<p>second time in october..i end up w/ a 1970..
this time i need to get over 2200, or else i get owned for collge<br>
and according to the curve..i would have 600 on cr, 800 on math, 720->750 for writing.</p>

<p>that only dds up to 2100. that is not enough to get in berkeley/LA</p>

<p>i have a 4.4 gpa and tons of extra curriculur..but i don't think that helps</p>

<p>hatesat, please. i would never cancel if i had a perfect 800 in math.</p>

<p>hatesat, where are you going for college? (or, want to go).</p>

<p>Hatesat, did you get any good score on CR in those two previous tests? B/c colleges do take your best scores.</p>

<p>i can easily get 800 math though...i did that for the first 2 test that i did.</p>

<p>CR and writing kilsl me
first time CR:400....writing 540
second time CR 540 Writing 660
this tiem CR 600, writing 700</p>

<p>Berkeley and LA.... keane Fan</p>

<p>I will settle for San diego.. if they accept me</p>

<p>but all the school i wanna apply to require above 2100 SAT</p>

<p>i am not gonna get in w/ my 1900...
i seriously wish tehre is no sat..and just gpa..
cause i woulda pwn in that...unweighted GPA : 4.0
weighted 4.4</p>

<p>Hatesat 2100 is a good score, a very good score.</p>

<p>Berkeley and LA needs 2200 especially when i am trying to apply for BUsiness Law</p>

<p>hatesat can u give me tips for math.. lol.</p>

<p>Keane Fan.....not really....i learned all the math on the SAT in 7th grade...so i did not have to really study for it</p>

<p>also...if i cnacel my score. what do i have to write?</p>

<p>send a letter to CB? what should i put on there?</p>

<p>hey, can someone please try and remember what the "compatible to" writing skills question was...and whether it was an experimental or not</p>

<p>thx</p>

<p>alright i have a couple questions now having caught up from last night.</p>

<p>for the questions about presumptuous....someone had talked before that didactic might work but they didn't know the second word. The second word was condoning...any chance that might be right. That is what i put.</p>

<p>for the question with appaling and lurid can someone list the other answers</p>

<p>thirdly...aqua thanks for compiling the curve estimate...but what do the double digit numbers mean. Is that your raw score? and if so how do you calculate that.</p>

<p>and for the person asking if the compatible question was in the experimental or not. I had an experimental writing section, but I am not sure if it was in that one or the other one. I have a gut feeling it was in the experimental because i remember doing it later in the test, but its really just a guess.</p>

<p>Keane Fan, I got 800 on math last time (Dec), and I just checked the questions I know 100% I got right. I always have like 10+min left so I redo all the problems I didn't check even if I'm 98% sure I'm right. Math is all about stupid mistakes. Redo them, and check your new answers with the one you put down. It worked once for me, b/c I made one tiny error.</p>

<p>wait so how many experimentals are there? I always thought there was only one, but othres are saying that they had sections like about a whale for CR and spinning chairs for M, I didnt get either of those, so does that mean there are two expiermentals? or more? thanks</p>
