I had to take Comp I because I did so poorly on the essay portion of my college entrance thingy. STILL BITTER.

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.
One of my co-workers is in college. One of her professors just gave an extension on the class paper. Because he went to some sort of seminar where it was stated that the difference between a C paper and an A paper was time. and I have to say that in my case it was very true. By my Junior year of college I was taking all english and history classes. i was always making choices about where to put my time. The GRE gave you an idea of my off the cuff writing - no hint of what I could do with work and polish. DH is one of the few people where first output and final output are very similar.

Me too! Even midway through the class they were telling me I shouldn't be in there. Adding that class to my schedule is one reason I'm not a doctor, plus easy A, so I'm pretty happy about it.
Ok, am home and she showed me her print out...
- Critical Reading - 620 - 83%
- Math - 640 - 83%
- Writing - 600 - 81%
----Essay 9 (range 2-12)
The % is the national percentile.
smart kid you've got there, Suzi.
Those are good scores! Where does she think she can pick up points, SuziQ? I ask as a former instructor for Princeton Review.
I've had 3 phone calls informing me the a/c will be installed tomorrow! "In time for the long weekend!"
Maybe I made an impression? Now if they just will not make a holy mess.
Once that's done, I know one thing I'll be doing this weekend: dusting. Jiminychristmas, there is pollen EVERYWHERE. And I hate dusting. And everything must be dusted. EVERYTHING.
Gnarhg.
Timelies all!
One more day till this week is over and I can go to Balticon . I'm a bit of a stress puppy right now...
But A/C! YAY A/C! This weekend must be cleaning and grading.
Also, sarameg, check flickr.
Kat - I asked and her first response was writing. And then she added that she should have done better at math. Oh, and while she "sucks" at critical reading, she wants to take an online review course for that.
