[rant on]Registering to retake the [censored] SATs! Since these tests are "required" I really think it'd be nice if they were free. And it'd also be cool if colleges would refund the application rapage (pardon me, fee) if you attend.[/rant off]
a whole $40 for a worthless test that won't ever help you get into a worthless college
!!!!????

Just think of it this way, going to a good college will cost you almost 1000 times that a year. Now you can [censored] and moan.
I never too the SAT's or ACT's. Knew I was going to save my money and go to a community college to get my gen. ed's taken care of. They didn't need the scores. Transfered to a 4 year school after 2 years to get my diploma.
Yeah, I know it ain't much, but it's still a kinda dumb. I wonder how much it actually costs for me to take the test...? Prolly around 2 or 3 bucks... If I can up my score than I can skip 3 classes, so I guess the $40 is wwwaaayyy better than another $1000 in tuition.
PSATs were worth it though. Got a good score and onto the national merit list, or whatever it was called. Ended up saving me $4k through my first two years. That, and our local MI apptitude test, MEAP. They gave a ton of loot four years ago, IIRC I got like $5k from the state. Too bad they don't do this anymore in MI.
