Well, it looks like it's getting to be that time of year again: PSAT results were just returned, and the SATs/SAT IIs are not far away. Possibly the best example of major flaws in our educational system, the SAT test series will essentially decide how you will spend the four most important years of your life. For some silly reason, they test on stuff up to about freshman year of high school- basic grammar, geometry, and reading... in junior year, when you've had years to forget what you've learned. Enough complaints, though. This is important.
I got my PSATs back today. Total score was 222, which is in the top 1% of the nation (about 14,000), but of course it has no essay, so I'm a bit worried. There's no easy way to practice for the essay. Fortunately my mother's an Eglish teacher, so maybe I'll do decently... how are all you doing? I'm sure I'm not the only junior on SWF. How about the older guys? Any fond memories of the tests?
