WQ
Got my AT-SAT score back. I passed. 94.7%. WQ.
Thank God.
I was certain I failed it, so I'm in absolute shock.

The waiting is the hardest part . . . .
It has now been eight days since I took the AT-SAT in St. Charles, Ill., and still no test scores. It is slowly driving me nuts. Anyway, I'll make sure to post the results here as soon as I know them.

Took the AT-SAT Today . . . . . .
Well, I took the AT-SAT today . . . . . . and bombed it. At least I think.
I did well on the Dials, and then the Math came. I got the first ten questions, but then bombed the rest. I'm sure I calculated some of them wrong, and I had to guess on like eight questions at the end. For everyone who hasn't taken the test yet - the practice rounds DO count against your total time. It's better to skip the practice and go straight for the test problems in Math. Scan I totally bombed. It was very different from the online game (much more difficult) and I couldn't deal with it. The range changed very frequently and there were far more planes than in the JJ version. I don't think I got half of the planes I was supposed to get. Letter Factory sucked - I missed moving boxes numerous times, and I was completely lost on the "situational awareness" questions - I totally guessed on 90% of them. AT Scenarios started out OK but then turned disastrous. I crashed NUMEROUS planes (I was the only one in the room to crash) and my scores were ABYSMAL! My scores were 75, 36, 79, and 74. Analogies was what everyone made it out to be - a total crapshoot. I think I did OK on the word analogies, but totally guessed on the pictures. Personality was a non-factor (I hope).
Anyway, I can confidently say that WQ, and even Q, are out of the question. The only issue is how spectacularly I sucked. I'm guessing that my score is in the 50-60 range, if that, but 30-40 is certainly within the realm of possibility. Im so disappointed that I didn't perform very well. I guess I'm just not cut out to be an Air Traffic Controller. Back to the job search for me.

AT-SAT Tomorrow
After a long, arduous journey (Illinois drivers SUCK!!!) I'm finally at the Days Inn in St. Charles, Illinois, ready to get a good night sleep before the AT-SAT exam tomorrow. I'll make sure to post here after I've taken the test to let you guys know how it went and offer some insight on the test itself.
Good night.
Good night.
