I was just wondering if anyone else on here had taken the SAT's recently. I made an 1860 on mine but i don't really care to take them again (mostly because I'm not going to a traditional college--I'm going to study homeopathic remedies, reflexology, energy healing, and the such after becoming a certified bartender :) once i graduate). Anyways, I was hoping some of you might share your opinions on a good score for the SAT's. Compared to the rest of my school this is fairly low and I was told to take it again.

Nah, I don't need a standardized test to tell me how smart or not-smart I am.
I have the search feature for that.

As far as I know, no they don't. Apparently they were too difficult. Isn't that the point?

Yup. I just checked Wikipedia and the analogy questions are gone. The analogy questions were the stereotypical SAT questions. If you wanted to make jokes about the SAT you made jokes about the analogies.
From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAT#History_of_the_structure_of_the_test):
Beginning with the March 12, 2005 administration of the exam, the SAT Reasoning Test was modified and lengthened. Changes included the removal of analogy questions from the Critical Reading (formerly Verbal) section and quantitative comparisons from the Math section, and the inclusion of a writing section (with an essay) based on the former SAT II Writing Subject Test. The Mathematics section was expanded to cover three years of high school mathematics.

Well I already made a thread about this, and despite podzol's possibly jumping on me again, you did ask. I got a 2220.
