I am trying to get a college scholarship. I am one point away from the required ACT composite score to get the scholarship & I have the GPA. I have taken the ACT multiple times and while my latest score is the highest, one of my past English test scores is higher. How do college’s stack scores? The college I am looking into attending will stack scores only for awarding scholarships.
Are sub-scores for individual subjects taken into consideration for stacking?

I attend Penn Foster High School & I’m Getting Ready To Graduate. But I Need To Take The SAT & ACT. is there a state wide testing? how can I find out?
thanks (:

-NO RUDE ANSWERS-

Hello Everybody !

How are you? I hope, that all of u`re doing well !

I think, Almost in a month, I`ll take SAT. But Now, I don`t have any idea to, preparation about it.. I`m really worrying about it ,

I just decided to, get all of ur help, with SAT preparation !

Please, tell me about ur ideas, How could I prepare for that successfully, .. How could I get materials , informations, from internet,, such as..

I really really hope, that all of u`ll send messages to me , pls! =)

& An Essay`s scores are separated from main scores, on SAT ???

God bless all of u ,, !

I already have the college board one and now i just want to buy a book that has practice tests so far i have only seen three which are
the princeton review 11 Practice Tests for the SAT & PSAT, 2010
Kaplan 12 Practice Tests for the Sat 2010
Mcgraw-Hill’s 12 SAT Practice Tests with PSAT

So I am now an unemployed, quite capable and somewhat bright 23 y/o male with a broad IT&C history. Today I had a job interview for a job that could have supported me through my tertiary education preparation course. I was told to make an appearance at 1pm sharp, I was there 10 minutes early. I ended up walking out at 1:40pm without being interviewed and going home quite disgusted by their audacious, deliberate waste of my time.

My problem is that I understand my attitude in this situation is rather explosive and somewhat belligerent and defiantly controversial. I need to develop techniques to manage my impatience because it is easily my biggest flaw. I am action orientated. Sitting around doing nothing for 40 minutes really bugs me, and consequently causes me act irrationally basing my actions on my emotions rather than logic.

QUESTION: Does anyone have any resources or suggestions as to how I can control this almost physical notion of disgust and offense I feel to the people responsible for me sitting around for stupid amounts of time.

NB: (May be irrelevant.)

I have tried to determine my personality type via the MB-TI in an effort to understand the whys and whats associated with my problem. I have completed different instances of the test 3 times with the collective result of: INTJ/P.
EDIT: Contraversial should say counter benificial.

Okay the ACT is designed to test our knownledge for College right? they have about 60 questions for the reading part, about 30 for the math & history & about 60 or more for the math test, but why is it timed! we get ONE minute for each math problem, we read about boring stuff that doesnt interest us like…red trees, and metal, if the test is so important why do they time us, we’re not suppose to feel pressured or try to hurry to get as many done as possible, i believe this is the most important test, i mean its one of the most important ways to get in college. does anybod know a reason for this, i was not able to get the last 3 the first time i took it, thank God i got into college anyway. no i’m not being a brat i have just always wondered, why make it timed when its a very important test

If I take English Lit. AP, Physics AP & French AP, will the preparation for the AP exams be good enough for the SAT subject tests in those areas? Would I need to learn new stuff for the SAT subject tests and would I need a tutor?

I passed Algebra 1 with a 93 (A) and Algebra 2 with an 89 (B)

But I don’t really remember it much; except for like slope and quadratic equations and I took algebra 2 last school year and algebra 1 two years before that.

I want to know Algebra & Geometry so that it’s like second nature; like adding or multiplying. I have McDougal Little workbooks, do you think that if I go over those I’ll get better?

I took the PSAT and the PLAN (ACT pre-test) and the math part kicked my butt every time (partly because I don’t know geometry yet) but also because I can’t APPLY algebra to save my life.

So yeah; what do I do?

Hire a tutor?

I’m a high school sophomore btw.

sorry it’s long! i tried to be short as possible but it’s STILL super duper long.. feel free to skip of you want..

ok so there is this guy i REALLY REALLY like and our lockers are near each other. whenever we have a test he would always ask me if i’m ready or if i did flashcards for them [our teacher makes us] and he asked me that like 3 times in the same day. he always asks my grade and i give the same answer EVERY time! then he would like hit me and punch me on the arm and sometimes the stomach. oh yea i used to ignore him (when i see him i won’t look up or look a different way and not take notice of him. stupid i know..) but now we’re talking i guess.. i act "normal" around him but sometimes i freak out.. hahha. & one day afterschool we went to "tutoring" to correct our test to get a higher grade and so he came up to me [we were on opposite sides of the room] and asked me for help. so then i gave him the answer and i asked help from him, too. i was sitting down and he was standing up and his thigh brushed my arm and my shoulder and he just kept it there. my stomach was twisting and tightening up so i couldn’t really breathe. i didn’t want to make it seem i was nervous, because i was about to choke from holding in my breath. so i asked him again and so yea he helped me. later on he grabbed a desk and scooted near me, in an obvious way. when we were working, our elbows were touching. i didn’t notice it at first but i saw he was fine with it so i was like, ‘ok whatever".

yesterday in class he asked to see my paper [opposite sides] so i told the person who sat near me to pass it back to him. when he gave it back i just glanced at him and he held eye contact, which he used to before then stopped and now does it again.. i have no idea why. anyway yea i just looked away. then later on in class he threw me a crumpled up paper and told me to throw it in the recyling. i was like, "noooooo it’s too far i’m gonna miss it!" & he said "no dude just throw it! try your hardest." but i ended up giving it to someone else. argh!

today in the beginning of class he passed by me and my backpack was open on my desk and my friend called my name so i looked at her, which was in his direction. then when i turned around he was looking through it and was like "is that candy i see there" me:"yea, i used it when i was sick" him:"really? idc as long as it’s good. is it?" me:"idk it’s okay i guess.." him: "wtf it has meth?" then i was like wtf NOOOO so he just took it and left. then he pretended to have a hard time opening it. anyways, after class, we were both walking with another person [different people] then i went on ahead to our lockers because the girl i was walking with had to go. the guy he walked with left. i was ahead and then all f a sudden he was on my left and said "oh sh!t" and pretended to trip. then we walked together and told me random things like buying a 0 bike.. ahah he asked where my locker was.. even though he sees me @ my locker everyday.. then my guy friend was walking me to where i get picked up and i was telling him about the guy i liked. then as we walk we see him and he saw us so i said hi. my friend wanted to leave so we could be "alone" but i wanted him to stay but he just ran. so i ALMOST walk past the guy i like, but he asked where i was going and i said to my car. then i asked if he got picked up here and he said yea. i turned around and smiled and said bye but then he asked "is that um, your boyfriend?" and i shook my head. he doesn’t really ask those kind of questions. idk i’m turning crazy…………………

do you think he might like me? honest opinions? any answers are welcome. thanks! and thanks for reading [if you did... (x]
