I took the SATs yesterday also…

All seemed to be going well until the last question on the fourth section, when the idiot proctor stopped time before she should have. I wrote down the start time on my test, to the second, and I am completely positive she only allotted 28:30 for the section, instead of 30 minutes. So there was a question I could have gotten but didn’t have time. ☹ I know it’s only one, but it still makes me mad.

I especially love the fact that she was trying to read the clock from almost a 90-degree angle. :rolleyes:
