<p>Right now I feel like crap. I took the test on January 9th, and I came with a 19% percentile. The worst part? I actually studied. I now feel like I have 0% chance in getting any other the boarding schools I'm applying to. Right now I'm so frustrated and ughhh.... I feel stupid. Is there any thing I could do to help the boarding schools I'm applying to bypass that?</p>
<p>yeah, you have a problem. though the ssat is not the most important part of your application, there is a standard. It is more of a checkpoint, like above 85, check. unless you have something amazing about your application, and even then, i dont think the schools will be able to bypass them</p>
<p>You could have messed your answers by marking them wrong on the answer sheet.</p>
<p>You know, that was probably what happened. Oh great, my parents are going to shove me down in the paper shredder.</p>
<p>Um pretty much yea…did you realize you don’t have to answer all of the questions? Answering wrong causes you to lose points…Try it again just to see</p>
<p>How is everybody getting their Jan9th test scores so soon?!</p>
<p>If you studied for the test, then I assume that you took some practice tests. Is that score in the range of the scores you received on the practice tests? If it isn’t, then you should retake the SSAT. Can you take the Feb. test? If not, you can look into taking a private administration. You can find more information about that on the SSAT website.</p>
<p>How do you already have you January scores? It’s not even released to schools until the 22nd, and emails are send a “few days after”.</p>
<p>my question exactly @PrincipalV!!!</p>
<p>if you took it on the 9th and you ordered the package to be able to see them early they came on the 19th</p>
<p>ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.</p>
<p>Yes I have taken practice tests Burb Parent, I had at least 94% of it correct. You are sp helpful, I would be looking into that. How’s everyone’s test went?</p>

<p>There has been a rumor that January SSAT tests are the easiest !
but… well… it could be different for each person…
people said that november was easier when I thought december was…
so… it depends!
