RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017
The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.
If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.
To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.
I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.
I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.
I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.
I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.
Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.
Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

Re: Taking SAT subject tests tomorrow
Fuck...good luck. I've never taken subject tests before, and I didn't feel like doing it to supplement any application for some school. Are you good at maths and sciences?

Being Asian, I'm naturally good at math. Somehow, however, I am bad at sciences.
I took the tests today. Math seemed pretty easy, while I'm confident my raw score for science is negative.

CHEMISTRY WILL TAKE CONTROL AND RAPE YOU TO YOUR DEATH
NO CHANCE OF A NORMAL LIFE TO LIVE JUST LIKE THE REST
If you had a good teacher it probably wouldn't have been a problem... I think you should study if you do bad and want to retake.

Re: Taking SAT subject tests tomorrow
You can always retake the Chemistry test if you're not happy with your score.

Re: Taking SAT subject tests tomorrow
I'm not taking my SAT because I chose not to and never sign up for it.
I am a spiritual being having fun in this 3D reality and hope to reach my dream goals somday.
Peace and Love

Re: Taking SAT subject tests tomorrow
Just a question, but has anyone in history ever gotten a negative score before?

Re: Taking SAT subject tests tomorrow
The lowest score is 0 and you get 600 points for writing your name.

I've never done an SAT subject test. I thought they were a myth.

Re: Taking SAT subject tests tomorrow
Got 660 on Math 2, and a 560 on Chemistry. Both were out of 800.
I just barely scored above average for Math 2 (I came in the top 48th percentile), and according to Chemistry, I'm retarded (I came in the top 75th percentile).
Let this be a lesson to all: Never take SAT subject tests. Ever.

Re: Taking SAT subject tests tomorrow
Oh good, I took the PSAT and did pretty good. I'll practice a bit, but overall I think I'll be fine.
I'm going to avoid the subject tests then.

Re: Taking SAT subject tests tomorrow
Many of the Ivy Leagues reccomend you take these subject tests. I didn't take them because the stupid collegeboard wouldn't let me log into my account, and all this technical shit ensued. I don't care; taking the regular SAT twice was more than enough.

I'm just too lazy to log in... I probably should though.
