WDW/DL SAT Passage

[Siege898]

I took the SAT today, and actually to my surprise one of the reading comprehension sections had a passage on DL and WDW vs. regular ordinary amusement parks. It also included the fact that some people will criticize the name Disney anywhere. Moreover, it included the very many fields of daily time disney is just invovled in.

just a cool thing i thought i might share with the group!

Yes, one essay is enough torcher. The person's original post was a passage on the Reading Comp, not an essay.

I'm lucky, in Louisiana you only have to take the ACT. No essays for me!

Wow, that's so cool! I'm if anyone on this forum had taken the SAT, they were the last ones to finish the essay, with multiple requests for "more paper please!" :lol:

Yeah, uhm, unless you want to go to a school that wants SAT scores. Then you'll be taking it.

Same for me, here in Illinois we take the ACT.

The ACT has recently added an optional writing section that starting in the coming years, most colleges will require.

My little brother just took the ACT last week, and his teachers were talking about how a writing section was going to be put for either the next year or the year after.

The writing section is optional and you have to specifically sign up for the "ACT Assesment + Writing" test. The regualr test is $24 and the +writing is $42.

Luckily, the ACT is in my past. I'm already an incoming student at Louisiana State University. I got a 27, and I'm proud of it!
