Your plans for tomorrow morning?

Test Preparation SAT Preparation
1

<p>Wake up at 5:30, and READ to get my mind ready. CR passages, articles on economist, newsweek, nytimes, and then do one math section, and not timing myself, just making myself used to reading the question after I finish it. There's nothing more invaluable than warming up if you ask me. Even doing reading today will be pivotal so when I sleep, my brain will keep my state of reading in mind. </p>

<p>Have to be careful to not take it too seriously though. Just need to be very calm and have some alacrity(cheerful readiness, SAT word, know it, it just might be on there tomorrow!) when I walk in tomorrow. Good luck to everyone! What is everyone else doing?</p>

<p>LOL @ reading before the test.</p>

<p>I am going to get up, shower, listen to some loud music to wake me up, take the test, and hope for the best ;)</p>

<p>I actually prepared for this test (well, only the math and the essay).... and am hoping to do well!</p>

3

<p>Waking up @ 6:30. Write "2400" 100 times on piece of paper. Leave at 7:00 for test center. (It sucks being 45 minutes away...) And I'm listening to Mozart on the way in. Studies show that people who listen to Mozart before a test do better than those who don't. Something to do with all the sixteenth notes in his music. Or so a music teacher told me anyway. Couldn't hurt.</p>

<p>Butter - Don't <em>even</em> complain, lol.... the closest test center to me is 1:30 away :(</p>

<p>PS: I think that statistic is flawed, because only super-geeks would listen to mozart.. ;)</p>

5

<p>I have taken half a practice test today, and will finish the rest off later today, and maybe write another essay to make sure.</p>

<p>Tomo - get up, eat breakfast, go.</p>

6

<p>Well all I need is youtube and I can listen to mozart. I'll try it just for the heck of it, might listen to it all morning, NOT, but I'll listen to it a little. My teacher always has it on during class(80 minutes), though it's not too loud. If I get 1400/1600, then Mozart will be my hero lol.</p>

7

<p>Wake up at 6:15am. Morning routine. Definitely shower to wake myself up. Warm up with some reading. Eat Breakfast. Leave by 7:20am (My test center is only 10min away but I like to have time to chill out).</p>

8

<p>Listen to mozart? Umm I'll try? Lol. But I prefer just listening to some of the playlists I already have.</p>

9

<p>I think I'm going to get up, shower, eat a good breakfast, and possibly take a practice test, or at least a math section (my worst) to sort of get in the feel of taking the test early. Or maybe I'll just read to keep calm. My testing center's only 20 minutes away so not too bad.</p>

<p>I don't know that listening to Mozart is really gonna help you at all. I've heard it helps with babies still in the womb or something and also that it helps you concentrate during a test, but have never heard it helps before. I'll probably just listen to whatever to get me awake and alert.</p>

10

<p>^^ Do NOT take a practice test, I repeat, DO NOT. Your brain will be fried by the time you are done with the real thing. Doing that one math section is ok though as long as there is a good break between the section and the real test.</p>

11

<p>Yeah, an hour and a half away would really suck. I'll still listen to Mozart, since it can't hurt any. And if it works, then I can use Mozart as my personal hero on college essays! ;)</p>

12

<p>Probably solve a few math problems, look at some vocab, and go over the 7 mistakes of grammar from Sparknotes.</p>

<p>Today I'll Sleep Early. Tomorrow, I'll Wake up, Take a Shower, Eat Breakfast, Pack everything I need (I.D. Snacks, Drink, Ticket), take an adderall, and I'll be ready to go for 4+ hours of the SAT!</p>

13

<p>good luck to everybody!!!</p>

14

<p>im taking the world history sat 2 :(... but good luck</p>

<p>I took the SATs in may, and did exceptionally well.
As a rule, I NEVER study anything the night before or the morning of.
However, reading, I feel, is a <em>great</em> idea. I read a few articles in newsweek and businessweek. By that point, I had been practicing CR for so long, that I automatically looked for the main idea of each paragraph and the important ideas of the article as I read it. Reading on the morning of helped me to wake up and to warm up for the test, highly reccomend it. However, listening to music of any sort is probably not the best idea (at least for me). I dont want to take the chance that i listen to a particularly awesome song and it gets stuck in my head while im taking the test. That could really screw you over when youre doing a part where you really need to concentrate...</p>

16

<p>Mozart was on one of the passages, unbelievable, and I was listening to him this morning. And then my dad's nickname(Baba, an Indian name for dad for some families) showed up. This test definitely had something special. </p>

<p>So how many people here actually did what they said they would? I definitely didn't read any articles ,just some Princeton Review CR passages on the way, and I looked over the entire Sparknotes 1000 list in the morning, and somehow it helped, a lot.</p>

17

<p>I did. Except the 2400 part- I was joking about that. Had cream of wheat for breakfast- the breakfast of champions! lol</p>
