Physics ... NOT!

I just got destroyed by the Physics SAT II this fine morning. it was a nice experience. fuck cornell. i guess thats what happens when you don't touch physics for over a half a year coming from a class where i only learned the bare minimum because of reguera. i spent all of last night studying for it from about 9pm to 7am. that was a fun experiences. just going through the book realizing i know absolutely nothing, and then doing practice tests and getting the majority of the questions wrong. but luckily the review was much harder than the test. the test actually had 3 questions on music which i got! so thats 3/75 lol. nah there were other questions i actually knew, i believe i left about 18 blank just because i never learned nuclear physics or thermodynamics. which really the physics SAT II is a lot like the AP scale, where u can flat out skip 30/75 questions and still get a 700. and the avg score is like 620. really im aiming for a mid 500 and i'll be happy. i love how they asked about about 20 equations and i only knew aboutttt 5 of them. but the good thing about physics with no calculator is a lot of them you can figure out with logic and is almost exclusively conceptual. and god my brain went overboard on logic, i call them supereducated guesses. i love learning about things during a test, thats fun, i had to do that in calc earlier this year when during the test i learned implicit differentiation through a multiple choice question on a quiz. whatever its over now, i really went in there expecting the worse, and i think i did ok, but still it was rough. and i love how there were about 6 kids that go to gulliver at gulliver taking SAT tests. the rest were from like palmetto or lasalle or wherever. now im pretty much officially done with colleges, except for i think i may apply to tulane next week. why? because i can.. and it only costs 15 dollars and takes 5 minutes of my time. and its a guarenteed acceptance.. really i just want to be accepted somewhere so i dont have that nagging doubt in the back of my mind ill get rejected everywhere cause of my half assed applications.
