Question Posted Wednesday May 9 2012, 6:30 pm

Well im 15 f and im a sophomore. I just got my plan(act) results back and i got a 16 which is like kinda below average! Ok and my family is really smart everyone my sisters and my mom but me i didn't get the smart gene. People in my school got at least 19 or higher. I feel stupid and im not pretty so im not smart enough for my family/ what i want to be when im older. I want to be a dentist or dental hygienist. Also my friends are super smart. Im crying i have to show my dad in a couple minutes. Its not fair! Im not a bad person and yet i get terrible qualities. I told my sister and she was like are you serious that goes on your transcript for colleges. But the plan test is just a practice!!well my point is i feel like i shouldn't be here like i don't belong i kinda want to just die and not just bc im not that smart. No im not gonna kill myself but im not happy i haven't been happy for a long time!

You know the ACT test and the SAT tests prove nothing. It's a bunch of information that I feel isn't even worth being tested on. I have never tested well in my life ever since 3rd grade I just never did well on tests. I would study my butt off but I would never get really good grades. My SAT I bombed...and it's not because I didn't try it was just how it happened. I put myself down when it happened and my friend told me it doesn't make me a bad person and it doesn't make me dumb either. I have a reading language based learning disability and I also have ADD. I thought for the longest amount of time that I would never amount to anything. I thought I was dumb and that for the rest of my life if I needed to understand something I would need help. I didn't think I would graduate high school or even go to college. And I did just that. Give yourself more credit and don't let this test tell you who you are or what your future is going to look like. I know this has nothing to do with school but look at Michael Jordan. When he went to college in North Carolina he didn't make the basketball team and he use to practice like crazy. Now look at him, he's known as one of the greatest basketball players in history. I know you might feel like the black sheep of your family but guess what you're different and that's something you should embrace. Do what makes you happy and find hobbies that make you happy. That test doesn't define you, you can create your own destiny. Good luck and keep your head up!
