Hi there, comments on the SAT paper that is required for enrolling into the University. Is SAT paper difficult? Is it a waste of time?

What's so Top secret about this?

SATs are just another standardize test that you will instantly complete, and instantly forget. Most universities don't make decisions based solely on the SAT test but on things you were involved in in Highschool

It's another way for a company to capitalize on your admissions into a university, I believe the first 3 schools are free and the rest you have to pay for. I believe that the SAT and ACT plays on the fears of high school individuals, anyways, don't worry about these standardized tests, instead, as Simulacra stated, get involved with your school (i.e. student government, yearbook, just as long as it's academic) and do alot of community volunteer work.

Well there is the collegboard.com.

You can get lot of tests from Barrons, Kaplan, Cliffnotes, Sparknotes and a lot more sources.

The toughness of the test depends on who you are. It is well documented that white 19 year olds who watch a lot of TV do the best on the test. Don't ask me why? It just is.

no sat is not difficult. Btw if you are 19 and taking the SAT then you have failed in high school and are backwards anyway.

I took the SAT's twice, once when I went to sleep early the night before, and once when I went out and partied the night before and didn't sleep. I scored an 870 on the SAT where I slept, and a 1250 on the one where I had a hang over. I have always been proud of that.

thanks surfup for the web link , nai i am not 19 yet . But is quite worried about SAT 1 paper difficulty as i have heard many said that it is hard.
