Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My SAT scores are easy to remember because my combined score is the same as Buffy's, and the verbal and math were the same.
Sad thing #1: I knew this.
Sad thing #2: I also knew (to the extent knowable) the rest of the gang's scores.
Sad thing #3: I googled it anyway.
Wait, I thought Buffy had a score that wouldn't divide into two multiple-of-ten numbers, like 1430?
I remember my SAT and ACT scores because I was digging through my paperwork all summer while applying for jobs. Why I still have paperwork from my high school test scores is anyone's guess.
I know I took some tests. Then I went to college, where there were more tests.
Yeah, this.
We're in New York State now, so Jake has to take Regents exams in different areas. I think this year he only has science, but next year there are a couple. Yuck.

I think mine were, too. The same as Buffy's, not the same as each other.
1430
Okay that's embarrassing, because you're absolutely right. I was taking 1340 and making it 720x2. Obviously knowing how to read and add were not as important to taking the SATs as one might imagine.
Drat, now I can't remember which of my scores was higher. They were only 10 points apart, but still.
Sadly, I recently found out that umpty years later, there can be yet another round of tests.
I just found out this morning (reading a book about Tolkein and the OED) that "umpty" is a real word (albeit an obsolete one), dating back to Old English!
Here's the story...of the dying TV theme song
Shows such as ‘Lost,’ ‘Grey's Anatomy’ are cutting straight to the plot
...
“It’s a rarity today,” TV historian Tim Brooks said of the catchy, tuneful opening. “It’s kind of like the Broadway musical producing hit songs — it just doesn’t do that anymore.”
Obviously knowing how to read and add were not as important to taking the SATs as one might imagine.
As long as you're able to eliminate any obviously wrong answers from the start, anything can happen.
Jess, we're totally SAT twins, as well as first-part-of-name-twins!
WAIT. Are you the reason I'm all nauseous (nauseated, I know, I know) today? Because I am NOT the one having the baby!!!
