taking tests and beating the ponies...long, but please help
Question Posted Saturday May 7 2005, 2:37 pm
13/f-so here's the thing, i'm smart, but taking those state tests, like the CAT/6, is like torture to me! i mean, REALLY. at first, i'm just answering questions like whatever, but once i'm halfway through the section, i get really bored. i feel like fallling asleep. i just keep thinking "when is this gonna be over already?!?!?!". i get REALLY REALLY REALLY tempted to just guess, but i have ONE motivation: we used to be the lowest school in the county (not country! COUNTY!), and now we have a chance to be the highest school in the district and beat the school we absolutely HATE: washington broncos...or as our principal says, they're just "my little ponies". anyway, we're only 39 API points away from that, and every question can count... but i get so restless too! taking the test, i start shaking, looking around, all that stuff, and i'm one of those outgiong, hyper, cant-stay-still girls, so this test-taking thing REALLY sucks for me. any help or tips or whatever to help taking the test be easier for me (AND my whole school)? we just have to beat the broncos! we live on he east side of town (you know, the awesome spirited and behaving school that get a lot of bad reputations for being on that side of that town, if anyone can relate) and we want people dropping dead of heart attacks when we become the best school in the district!!!HELP!!!
