Request
Hi,
I apologize for lack of contact but I've been really busy lately and I'm just dropping a note to ask a favor. I am taking my SATs tomorrow and I was wondering if you guys could pray for me to whatever you believe in, so that I may have the grace to do well.
Thanks in advance, TK
Re: Request
May Baal be with you.
Re: Request
I don't pray or believe so yeah...
But good luck!
Re: Request
Right before the test, repeat over and over to yourself:
"I am god, I am god, I know all"
I knew a guy in high school who swore that worked for him. Taking the test in the right frame of mind helps. After all, it only decides what college your going to get into and what happens the rest of your life, no pressure right?
Actually, you are taking it twice right? So really no pressure.

Don't sweat it just do the best you can. I'm almost 30 years beyond highschool graduation. I still see some friends from school who were "no stranger to the short bus" (not college material). One in particular was always made fun of by some of the book smart clique. He runs his own mechanics garage now, fixes some of these "smart peoples" cars and makes more money than most of them.

May chance favour you.
Re: Request
Relax. The Sat is easy, especially if you prepared. And even if you didn't, like me, it's fairly easy if you have sufficiently high math(probabaly geometry maybe Algebra II can't remember). Only thing you might need to worry about is the writting section whihc is new.Originally Posted by Teutonic Knight
And don't guess unless you can narrow it down to 3 or less.

Re: Request
I also took AlgebraII when I was a freshman, but here t is honors level.
Well I am alo an Atheist, so good luck!
I took the PSATs recently and my strategy for them was try to relax and if you cannot do that then tell the little, pessimistic monkey in your head to shut up! I got 99 percent on one English section, 91 on the other and 77 or a bit higher on the math. I was a sophmore at the time an get to take it again, so remember you ca try again to improve your weak spot, for me it will be math.
BTW the PSAT scores mea you scored higher than that percentage of High school juniors (college bound). Since I was a sophmore I get another chance.

May whatever non-specific deity, that may or may not exist, that is around at the time guide your hand and help you to stay calm and focus.
In other words good-luck I hope you do well.
Re: Request
Well, TK, I said a prayer on your behalf, but honestly, I'm sure you're going to do fine. Just for good measure, I asked St. Thomas Aquinas, patron of those in scholarly pursuits to lend a hand as well. Just remember to say thank you, after you've aced it. (Damn smileys! Insert wink here).

Re: Request
well just the other day an old ex gf of mine told me that i was a "real saint". so i blessed you personally. now, however, if you don't get a perfect score i expect some animal sacrifices in my name..
corleone, smilies aren't working for you? that's weird. can you see other people's?

now i'm here, and history is vindicated.
Re: Request
Yes, and it says that smilies are on. It's nothing in the cookies, cause when I use my work computer, they work fine. But if I click on a smiley, isntead of inserting it, it pulls the whole screen up to the top of the page and does nothing.
And saints dont' get animal sacrafices in their name. Cold hard cash buddy. (Again, no smiley to insert). Unfortunately, you don't get it, your patron cause does, and somehow I don't think St. BigJohn's, patron of hot booty photos, home for the chronic self-abuser is a bona fide charity, at least not yet.

Re: Request
I had the same problem a few months ago, you can get round it by clicking on the More link below the smileis, then just copy and paste the smilies code into your message. It takes longer but it does work.

luck be with you

Re: Request
I get that sometimes if the page hasn't loaded properly. I guess you could just type them in, they're usually pretty obvious, ;balloon;
Re: Request
Will do, God bless you...
RIP Tosa
Re: Request
Good luck dude... actually some of my friends are taking the SAT as well today...
As for praying, I always ask my Grandma to pray for me for my tests, even though I'm an aethist. Not sure why... I guess for luck.

Consider it done. If Black sabbath do show up to sit your exam, let me know ?
Good luck anyway

Re: Request
Thanks for all the well-wishes and good lucks guys it means a lot! I just got out of the testing center and man was that an excruciating ordeal! The Verbal has been WAY dumbed down for the new test, and the math has some AII and more advanced geometry. I think I wrote a pretty good essay (I think) about whether "majority rule is the best concept for a governing a society" I'll write more later
Re: Request
How was the essay(s?) presented? I took the SATs before this change so I'm a little curious.
