JcCorp Probe Posted: 3 Mar 2005 17:41 GMT Total Posts: Edit | Okay, here in CT we have a little standardized test given to sophomores called the CAPT tests. (Connecticut Aptitude Practice Test... I think.) They happen in about 2 weeks, and they take up a whole week. Anyway, I'm a Junior, so I don't have to take them. And since I don't have to be in school during the tests, I get to come in real late to school. Which is cool by itself. But...
On certain Wednesdays, I get out of school at 12:30.
Put these together, and on Wednesday during that week I have one class and lunch. My school day is from 11:30 to 12:30. :) If only that one class was my guitar class... |

TI Freak Probe Posted: 4 Mar 2005 10:25 GMT Total Posts: Edit | We have that here in Indiana. Ours is called the ISTEP test.
Those that didn't have to take the test (Covered 3-4 days) brought in game boys, movies, or anything else (Some teachers allowed game systems with multiplayer games only) and that was how we spent our week. I of course programmed, or read one of my many books...
My test results:
Math 180 points above minimum pass points English 80 points above minimum
I was in the top 14 of my state... :D |

I might go in early and play a few rounds of MTG. |

JcCorp Probe Posted: 6 Mar 2005 05:11 GMT Total Posts: Edit | Well, that's what I'd do. My friends are all going to do it, even the one that looks like Gollum from LOTR. (Really.)
And yes, I know the immense amount of work involved, Zedd. Frankly, I'm willing to do it. I know what is expected of me. I hope to go to a school where learning is not just in a classroom and it is an involved and at least slightly fun process with hands-on work. I'm not planning on going to any lecture hall-type schools. |
zedd Ultralisk Posted: 6 Mar 2005 08:48 GMT Total Posts: 428 | Actually i've tried to play, but it got boring after the first card was drawn. same w/ eveyother card game.

JcCorp Probe Posted: 22 Mar 2005 15:23 GMT Total Posts: Edit | Music theory is awesome. The work is really fun. I've composed some very interesting pieces, if you'd like to see them and you have the Finale PC software, email me. |

JcCorp Probe Posted: 22 Mar 2005 16:52 GMT Total Posts: Edit | Well, Finale is a sheet-music writing software. I'm not sure, but if you google search for it you may find a free download of it. |
