Standardized testing time! Tomorrow I take the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! Exam (PA standardized testing). Honestly I don’t know what to expect. I have really good grade in the biology course, but I’m still a little nervous. My friend who took them today (from a different school) said they weren’t that bad, and she absolutely hated biology. That’s a good sign I guess. Wish me luck Oppo!

Thanks! I don’t hate standardized testing per se, but they overhauled the standardized testing system recently, hence the test I’m taking tomorrow. With these new tests, you are tested in core subjects (Algebra 1, Biology, and Literature) if you do not pass them all, you don’t graduate.

Standardized tests are usually targeted to catch the dum-dums. I refuse to believe any Oppo’s are dummies.

Yeah, people’s intelegence can’t accurately be measured by a standardized test. I've already passed the Algebra 1 with flying colors! Biology is a whole different ballgame so to speak. Algebra is less memorization and more knowing how to apply logic to solve problems. Biology is pretty much all memorization.

I took them two years back. They’re not too bad just take them seriously and you’ll do fine. In my opinion the keystones in general pointless and a waste of time

Can confirm. The bio one was not hard at all. Just a ton of writing.
