<p>oh its a female sheep. damn.
ughhhh</p>
<p>i know. verbal is kind of based on luck.</p>
<p>i made the biggest mistake on my essay
i was talking about macbeth and because of my nerves, I wrote HAMLET!!!!
WHAT SHOULD I DO?!!?
that is so horrible. They're going to think I dont know my literature, it was an honest mistake :(</p>
<p>I responded in the other thread, which is why I said "once again, I feel your pain--" I was referring to that.</p>
<p>.. this is what i mean by the cultural bias. another involved business, which, while anyone can learn about it, it's most likely that if you're parents are into it (it was big business), that you'll know.. and the pony is to colt.. i only know that a pony isn't an actual horse (they're sort of like dwarves), not a baby horse because i horseback ride.. and i know that a colt is an actual baby horse because of that as well. i don't know.. it's unfair.</p>
<p>do you guys remember the one..</p>
<p>urbanite is to bumpkin as intellectual is to _______</p>
<p>was it dullard?</p>
<p>I know I should probably create a new thread, but since you guys are here and online, I was hoping that you could tell me if being an international applicant has any effect on my chance of admission?</p>
<p>A bumpkin is an unsophisticated person. It's funny you wrote that, because it was a random word my friend Nash called to insult me, so I looked it up and showed it to him, and then he thought that was strange. xD Kind of pumpkin, but with a b.</p>
<p>umm i think i put the answer above dullard, and if not, then i put dullard.</p>
<p>because urbanite..well, is sophisticated city-like
and bumpkin refers to stupid country people</p>
<p>if you can get financial aid, it's very meager. but they like to increase dieristy for the most part. apply to tabor.. they have a huge international population and the kids sort of get special benfits like private dinners for them and stuff.</p>
<p>itchytorso (haha, i like the name), do you think its way out of line to write a letter or an email to the school talking about it.
I feel so horrible</p>
<p>Go to my board, guys. ^^</p>
<p>That's what I would be most likely to do in your situation, but I'm not sure if it's the best option. I don't think writing to the schools will do any harm.</p>
<p>I have to go to bed now...</p>
<p>an actual letter, handwritten or a email to my interviewer.
one stupid name. so much trouble.
thanks though!
and being international definitely doesnt ruin your chances</p>
<p>night!</p>
<p>... what were the options for PALTRY: ... i know the definition (meager), but I don't remember finding that on there... i know "official" was..</p>
<p>the answer is C, worthless for paltry</p>
<p>Ahhh this was my second time taking the SSATs...I didn't study for it because I was annoyed that I was taking it again :P</p>
<p>But basically it was okay. I left two questions in the math section blank though, and two in the verbal section blank.</p>
<p>it was easy in math but hard for the vocabulary I think the reading was meh</p>
<p>Ahh :( Now I'm hating myself for doing so bad in test.. Everyone's comparing answers which I'm pretty sure I got wrong, which makes me feel extremely insecure..I'm not saying it's bad, but I just figured out that I made some very miserable mistakes in my test and I was pretty sure they were right answers. lol.
The aftereffect of verbal section was just extreme..In my test site, we had a break after the verbal section and everyone ran out yelling "AHHHHH!!!!!!" after the section. It is just horrifying to know that you did worse than you think. That's how I'm feeling now lol :(</p>
<p>i know how you feel.
but this was my second time, so i knew what to study for. i knew how to think (attitude) towards the test. and I know I did better than last time
but i screwed up big time :l ehk.
im sure you did fine</p>
<p>Kids started screaming? Wow. That's a good example of how the pressure is just not fair to put on kids.
sangzog, remember that this exam does not test your worth as a person, your emotional, athletic, or artistic capacity, and many other things. You could get in the 1st percentile (which I'm sure you did not) and still be a good person. You do not need to let this test determine your self-worth. :)</p>
<p>wait..if im doing a flex test next saturday, is it like the same one?
im not trying to get some answers here though.</p>
