This time I’m in it with you– I’m registered and ready for tomorrow’s SAT Reasoning Test (and feeling the pain of the 7 a.m. alarm clock already). Here’s what we’re going to do: we’re not going to obsess about the test today. No cramming. No freaking out.
Tomorrow we’re going to bring our tickets and IDs and #2 pencils (they say you’re not allowed to use a mechanical pencil, so I’d bring the old fashioned kind in case you have a stickler proctor). We’re leaving the cell phones at home, because if it rings, buzzes, or you’re seen touching one during the test you’re out the door no questions asked.
We’re going to bring a snack or two, like peanut butter crackers and a banana (not a donut) and definitely a bottled water, too.
And if you’re stressed out, you may want to look into the latest piece of my ongoing series with Barbara Ann Cochran, Gold Medalist and Coach Extraordinaire– she can help you sort out what all the panic is about and how to get past it here.
