Farewell to the SAT

It's been a long hard journey. And Thank God it's over.

My journey with the SAT has definitely been more personalized than most. Towards the end of my sophomore year, I was introduced to the SAT every Saturday at something akin to Korean SAT cram school. I used to be ashamed, but honestly, there's nothing to be ashamed of in studying hard for a test that does have a significant effect on you as a college applicant. That being said, I HATE the SAT and everything to do with it. 

My experience has included (but not limited to):
Mistiming by proctor (ten minutes short).
Student with a nosebleed dripping blood near my desk.
Bubbling in the wrong section and having to fill out two scantrons.
Needing to cancel scores...
Not knowing cursive.
Caught mistiming by proctor. (x2)
Proctor eating lasagna during test (wafting smells throughout the room).

Clearly it's been fun. Today I took my final two subject tests in math and US history. We'll see how they turn out...
