Yeah I took a couple of practice tests at my school, where they mimicked the real test with the time and everything. The test itself wasn't really that hard, but I just had a hard time concentrating. The only part I strugged on was the vocabulary. I guess I'm just retarded in English because I didn't know like half the words. Anyways, the best score I got on the practice tests was 1700. The only reason why I didn't score higher was because of the vocab, and because I just completed BS'ed my essay

Just a pencil, eraser, and a calculator. Anyways, I'm shooting for at least 1900. My mom bought me a couple of SAT practice books, which I'll be working on during the summer
1700 isn't bad. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>No iPods or anything for entertainment?</div> It's a state exam.

Pretty much everyone takes it twice.

You are allowed to bring a drink, and if you get bored enough, you can play with the bottle. Of course, most of the people I know sneakily took out their cell phones.

The writing section for the new SAT is so stupid. The first time I took it, I think I got a 550 on the writing section, and that was with me actually trying. I think I took the SAT three more times after that, and I just BS'ed the essay all three times; I ended up getting above 650's on the writing section each time. So stupid.
