Ugh, Another Week

<p>it's been weeks and i'm still suffering from post SAT paranoia</p>

<p>OK....grading the SAT twice so that it'll be "more accurate" is total ********. For all I care, you could grade the thing wrong twice.</p>

<p>I've had enough of this mess already. Collegeboard won't ever get its credibility back so they might as well get over it.</p>

<p>Here's my idea: give the students the answer key and their answer grids, after the essays have been graded and the grids scanned once. Have the students themselves grade them. Come on, I could grade better than that machine.</p>

<p>Well the supposedly do it on different days, although I don't know how much of a difference that makes...</p>

<p>miss independent.. im completely setting myself up for disappointment. hardly any prep and first time taking it, i have decided i wont be happy unless i get a 1900+, which is highly unlikely. ohhh welll... i guess ill find out in six days.</p>

<p>It's getting closer and closer every day, but still it seems far away.</p>

<p>The thing, though, is that after being on cc a lot, I don't think I'd even be happy with a 2100, a score I would have been ectastic with if I hadn't known about cc.</p>

<p>I KNOW!!!</p>

<p>The same thing happened with me for the Math subject test... when I first heard about it, I thought I'd be very glad to get 750+. Now I'm holding my breath for that perfect 800... hahaha</p>

<p>dancingbear, what do you usually score on the math section?
This question applies to everyone on CC</p>

<p>madamebovary, june was my first time taking the SAT. on practice tests i usually scores around 700, but i dont think i did as well on the real thing. =(</p>

<p>but we had so many of the same answers for math. ugh.. i hope i can get 760</p>

<p>virtuoso...don't let it get to you. I'm hoping for a 2100...something I have yet to beat. </p>

<p>I'm really just hoping for at least 700+ (but higher would be lovely =P) on the Math and CR...</p>

<p>I'm praying for a 800 in Math (I'd kick myself if I didn't).</p>

<p>Do you guys know how many I could miss on the CR to get a 750+? Last time I got 5 wrong and got a 730; was that a hard curve?</p>

<p>that seems like a harsh curve.. i would guess you could get 3-5 wrong to get a 750. thats just a guess though, so dont hold me to it!</p>

<p>i would assume -3</p>

<p>it feels like it was so long ago that i took my sats. three weeks is a long time.</p>

<p>Right now I'm going crazy wanting to know what I got (I was a first timer in June), but I can imagine myself going to collegeboard.com and chickening out. I'll probably make a friend check for me, or like my mom or something.</p>

<p>"it feels like it was so long ago that i took my sats. three weeks is a long time."</p>

<p>haha, yeah. I was thinking today, that since the math IIC on the 3rd, and then my math final, two days later, I haven't done a single math problem XD.</p>

<p>Hm..I'm kind of scared. When I first stepped out of the exam room I thought I did really well..now I'm not so sure anymore..O.o</p>

<p>I wanted to put that test behind me...I had to take it in a school with no air conditioning, a huge fan blowing my test booklet all around, no lights (the room voted to keep them off because of the extreme heat), and the frustration that a girl a couple chairs ahead of me peeked at the essay question before the test actually started.</p>

<p>I'll be happy to get my scores and just end the anxiety.</p>

<p>I never really understood the "lights create a ton of extra heat" notion.</p>
