I Love A Great Quote

If you're taking the SAT tomorrow, don't forget these wise words:

Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.

-- Winston Churchill

    My favorite quote of all times. And if you wish to see it played out with music in a nice mashup of quotes, see here: http://www.greatquotesmovie.com. The quick recall of this 3-minute pick-me-up was one of the nicest things that I took from a job that I had left.

      Thanks Dylan!  I'm done trying, for the moment...but I'll be back!

      Good luck to you.  When are you taking it?

      • Dylancatlow

        I'm in sophomore year right now, so I'll probably take it junior year.  Is it good to take it early?

        • http://www.perfectscoreproject.com Debbie Stier

          I'd start taking the practice tests as soon as you're done with school this year.  One every other week.  

          Follow this recipe: http://perfectscoreproject.com/2012/01/sat-prep-on-a-budget/

          Or, if you can afford a tutor or SAT school to get you on track-- get one who believes in a similar recipe (i.e. long term preparation, official College Board materials, full, timed practice tests, etc.)

            I've already taken like 2-3 practice test, only one of which timed. I've been too lazy to actually review them=P

            I get it!  but the review them is the part where the "getting better" happens!

            Also, definitely take them all timed as you get closer.
