General Chat / today's SAT essay topic.

It's so retarded how they make a huge deal about that stuff. My proctor spent like half an hour reading the bullshit. And then you have to copy a fucking statement in cursive which I never do so I don't remember how to write in cursive really. It's fucking stupid as hell.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that statement. It took me about five minutes just to write that out, because I'm only used to writing my name in cursive. I had to keep remembering how to write different letters and such. That sucked.

Anyways, you guys had to write an essay for the SAT1. Haha.

The people at the school I was at seemed pretty chill about everything. Checked IDs went we came in, that was it.

Come to think of it, it would have been very easy to sneak "testing materials" out of that place. Hmm.

I can't believe we have to write an essay now.

I'm so glad I never had to write an essay for the SAT. I got my 1250 the first time I took it and never looked back. The ACT was alittle harder though, that Science Reasoning fucked me up. I pulled a 28 out of my ass though, thanks to the math sections. I have the reading comprehension of a sixth grader. Not really, but half the shit I read I don't care a damn thing about so I don't remember it and then I miss all the questions. I'm a math person, what can I say?

I honest to god hope the College Board falls to pieces and is no longer considered a respectable organization. The New SAT I has proven to be a complete joke. Hundred of people made perfect scores. The key to getting a good score on the essay was not staying on topic, providing a good argument, or good grammar. High essay points were applied based almost solely on length. As long as you rambled and had a lot fo it you got a good score. And, as stated with the protors, dealing with any aspect of the organization is nothing but BS and a lot of hassle. To hell with them all. The next generation of American kids will be a bunch of morons who feel good about themselves being morons.
