College Exams

Sun Apr 09, 2006 9:11 pm

Which exams did you take before going off to college? The SAT? The ACT? Both? Do you remember when the SAT was only 1600 points? Or are you still too young to take these tests?

I'm English. So none.

None of them. Went straight to JC after HS. Spent a couple years getting all of the boring stuff done (English, Art, Biology, Chem) so I could focus all on Physics and Math when I got into Poly last fall.

I took the new SAT, and I know when I was younger (7th or 8th grade) I took the ACT (the TIP program from Duke).

I don't remember what my score was then, and I don't remember if it was a good high score.

Hmm, all standardized tests are just like school tests to me. I take them and forget about them (I was never the type to get stressed over any tests). The SAT scoring doesn't sound familiar so I'm assuming I took the ACT, I really can't remember though (it was the ACT along with the Prairie State Testing. Easiest test ever.)

The "new" SAT, and I remember when there was the "old" one, I should have taken that one the year before. -_-

Man, I must be ancient. I took the old SAT and the ACT.

I only took the ACT (like 7 years ago--*feels ancient*). I'm currently racking my brain studying for the GRE...

I took the 1600 point SAT back in 6th grade. I don't remember much, but I think that I got a 1050. I still have some time until college comes along, so I'm not worried (not that standardized tests bother me).

I haven't taken any of those options - I'm in Australia. I have taken the Western Australian Tertiary Enterance Examinations to get into University though.

I was supposed to take an SAT test but I never showed up to it. My teachers got mad at me and said I had to go to a make up session but I never went to that one either. X3 I was the only senior that year at my school that didn't take the test. I just took a placement test when I registered for my classes at the college.

I took the SAT (new version) and the ACT. Let's just say I test loads better than I homework.

None. I live in Australia.
