You have to get a 4 or high i think and math reading NRTS. but its all good. do your best. good luck. hope i helped. oh and for the reading portion if its like mine. read the ?s first and underline the important stuff. ( main idea, authors purpose ect) [ jmnm's advice column | Ask jmnm A Question ]

Ummm...Tips on taking them???
Read every answer super carefully, and one of my old teachers told me that if you're not sure on a question, guess either B. or C., cuz' those are the most commonly correct answer choices (or something like that)
Hope I helped! Just relax! They're no big deal! Just get a lot of sleep tonight, and eat a peppermint before you take the test to "make you think better" (another tip from one of my crazy past teachers) :) [ Berri's advice column | Ask Berri A Question ]
