((( Moonkin ))) I'm so glad you're not hurt !!

I'm sorry about your car. Having an accident is rough to go through. Those tests.. so stressful. They're behind you for now and I believe you can take them again, right? What about getting a tutor to help you prepare for the next time?

(( so glad you are okay ))

Awww ((((((((((( Dustin )))))))))))

So sorry to hear of the testing and then of your accident! I'm glad you are ok....heavens that's such a scary thing to go through!

Remember though, a car can be replaced. As long as you and no one else were hurt...that's the most important thing.

Please take good care of YOU. Just Wrecked And Totalled my Car!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Moonkin,
I'm sorry about your car. Yes, you had a stressful day!
Those tests are a b***h! I just had to take the GRE and, like you, I guessed on many of the answers, especially the math!
When I was in high school, long ago, I took the ACT and did terrible on it. I have test anxiety and a kind teacher gave me a book to help prepare for the SAT. It helped immensely and I did much better having had the practice tests. It won't help you with the answers, of course, but it helps you pace yourself and learn to focus on the nature of the questions, etc.
I hope this helps.
Patty

I'm really sorry about your accident - but the main thing is you're ok, right? A car can always be replaced.

I took the ACT twice. Made a low score the first time! Felt like ****, but then retook it and made a lot higher. What I am trying to say in this half empty mind of mine is that sometimes guessing works out and sometimes we give ourselves less credit than we really deserve...

The main thing is that you are not hurt physically from wrecking your car...and of course, you know we are all here for you!

Moonkin,

I know how stress can lead to getting into car accidents.....just remember, a car can be replaced, you can't. Hope you weren't damaged in the accident. I always had anxiety with tests & would freeze up a lot of times & really mess up the scores. The ACT's can be taken over....so all is not lost.

Just make sure you aren't hurt from the accident & everything else can be fixed or replaced,
Debbie

OOOOHHHH NOOOOOO!

Well, I'm glad you're ok (you are, right?)

That's a lot of frustration you dragged into your car with you...
You said you guessed on many answers; is that what they say to do? I hope you are a good guesser.

I prayed that God would bring to your mind those things you studied. Perhaps in guessing, you got 'em!

Yes, as Eskie said, you can retake it. And if you do have to (you might want to if it's a low score anyway) you'll be familiar with it, and the testing situation there.

Cars can be replaced. Tests can be retaken. (((Moonkin))) can't be remade!!! Just Wrecked And Totalled my Car!!!!!!!!!!!!! Glad you're okay!
