You sit down calmly and open that bulky red book of yours. Upon attempting the third practice test, you feel as if you’ve got it firmly in your hand: that 34 you always scored. And just like how you would expect it to be, the reading passage was a breeze. No kick, you think.
Confidently, you mark your answers. But slowly and slowly, you start getting more crosses than ticks. Oh crap! It’s a scaled score of 25! What has happened to the unbroken string of 32+?
And that’s how you screw up. Unfocused, unclear and in a haze right after the tough trigonometry problem. Right afterwards, you go to CollegeConfidential and rant.
The End.
