I'm a junior who has taken the PSAT twice and never paid much attention to either score. I'm really nervous about living up to high expectations and getting into a decent college -- one that is my first choice.
So, during Math SAT Prep (I did worse in math and have never been the best at it) we had to review what we got wrong and, of course work on improvement. Eventually I got serious with my score and realized that it's not all that bad; I don't remember last year's score. My score was a 1590,reading being my best. I'm still a bit self-conscience because I know that so many more people did better than me. So I can see that my score is a little over average -- not that great.
I need to quit slackin'.
But! I looked up my score online since I haven't seen my guidance counselor yet and got different feedback:
good score...but if you didn't know that your better off at your local Taco Bell than any university
Book smarts will never overtake common sense..because its so uncommon
Find that here.
Ha!! This is true. Above all, I'd have to admit that the comment is right. I don't know how many times my teachers and many others have talked about the SAT scoring system and I just didn't pay attention. That's a part of my problem, I need to start paying attention. It is of common knowledge too...
Any ways, I'm going to take a look at my old PSAT score and see if I've improved at all or sunk.
Oh! One more thing. I bet you've noticed, I haven't used an emoticon ONCE. :D I'm trying to deliver my message without relying on them. It will help me out with identifying with tone and implying my intended tone in my own writing for AP English. There's plenty that I need to work on so this will hopefully help!
How are you all by the way? c(n___n)-b~<3
