Once you guys start the registration process for college/university, you'll see how benificial they are when you get a high score (I got 1270 on my SATs :D)

Please, if any of you will, read this article written by my history teacher. He is an amazing writer - his articles are often #1 in the world on those topics. He writes for newspapers, too. Here it is:

Hmm. Definately some good points. Anyone ever stop and think about why most countires have public schools? There tends to be certain reasons why things have evolved this way. And good reason for it.

Besides, I'd rather have a teacher who became one because that's what they wanted to do rather than one doing it for the money.

I'm hoping this was on the old test? Those old tests were easy though, I took em in 7th and 8th grade, and got a 1030 in 8th grade. In fact I was looking forward to take them again, until they changed them.

I think mine was about 1180, I probably should have studied. lol

I really didn't have to take it at all, I ended up going to a community college anyways cause of money reasons.
