1. I'm sure you'll do well
Hope you get a good night's sleep & eat a breakfast of champions, or something equivalent, for breakfast!

2. You'll be fine - I took mine the week of our high school musical,
when I'd been up every night until midnight or later, and took it the day after opening night when we had been up even later than that, and the test started at like fucking 8:00 am or so. I hardly slept that week, and still scored Mensa level.

You'll be fine.

5. You're smart enough - I have all faith in you.
Reading your posts here and the quality of your knowledge and skill at communicating, I have no fear of you sailing through it just fine. At least the non-math parts. I have no idea how you are on math.

13. Urg. I went to Rocky Horror in Boston the night before
then got caught in a compromising position by my dad the morning of the test. And got my period during the test.

Don't do that.


Did okay, though. 1680. Had to retake it, though.

14. SAT's are easy
the less you worry, the better you do.

My parents made me take them every year. The third time, I was annoyed and had stayed up late the night before, so I just filled random bubbles for every math question. And I still walked away with a 1080.

15. I've always had a question about SAT tests...
If they routinely gave those tests on Sundays, instead of Saturdays, would they have had to come up with a different acronym and called the tests SUN tests?

27. Good luck and relax. Remember...
You can always retake - so don't worry!

That's what I always told my kids, and it seemed to help.

You're gonna do great!

29. Just remember
This one day and this one test will determine the rest of your life, that's all. No pressure. This only determines whether you dine on sumptuous meals, or eat cat food in your older years. No big deal. Good luck!

34. Think of tests as a fun way to show off a little. That was my
approach back in the day, and I seldom went into a test with dread on my mind.

A test is like a game.
