SAT-Part 3-I've No Idea WHat To Call It

Ads-Public service announcement paid for by ETS-Contrary to public belief, ETS(Creator of the SAT) is not a profit-making organization. It is an NPO. Any alleged theory that ETS has a pool the size of Bill Gate's entire mansion or that the manager has a private jet or that the founder has three sons that each had a full score is absolutely and completely false.


Notes(1):If you are confused by the title, it's because I can't think of a better title
Notes(2):Check out Alcibade's website if you want some really hard riddles.
Notes(3):Also, please check my blog more regularly. I'll post more from now onwards.
Notes(4):Check out the Dilbert comics, conveniently located as a widget on my blog
Notes(5):A lot of people asked me if and what I watch on TV(as if that's the prime element of inspiration for intellect and humor). The answer is yes, but there's no specific program I enjoy(unless you count the highly intelligent Japanese anime Death Note), so don't bother watching those programs thinking that you could gleen off highly intelligent humor from them.
Note(6):Yes, I know all these notes are annoying

 After a while and no more signs, we all decided(by virtue of everybody(Read:nobody) agreeing to do so) to head back to the original waiting area. They were just going in line for the different rooms of the SAT(The real rooms, this time).  We waited for quite some time. It was all really suspenseful. 

 Then, we got the tests.*The first portion was the essay. The essay question was about the advantages and disadvantages of progress. 


 Let's just say that I prefer the old times because you don't have to take tests in the good old days. Nor do you have to take the essay. Nor do you have to have 24 nerve-ridden minutes at a state of mental shutdown and then make up a lousy essay doomed to mediocrity(even if it had enough time to be finished, which wasn't the case)in the remaining minute. 

How I missed the good old days.

*it's one of the rules of the universe that when the suspense is high, the actual thing to be suspenseful for is rarely worth the suspense**

**Try to say that 5 times fast. 





***Actually, I didn't do that bad.(Out of 800)
630 Writing 85th percentile
680 Math     91st percentile
770 Critical Reading 99th percentile
