LM came in with the mail. Always good things for him, bills for me. Today he says, “something from the SAT came.”
“It can’t be your scores,” I replied, “it’s too soon.”
We both had envelopes addressed to us, with the same SAT return address. I ripped mine open faster.
Cricital Reading 580
Math 500
Writing 480
Let me translate that: In critical reading, LM scored higher than 74% of college-bound SENIORS. In math and writing, he scored higher than 45% of college-bound SENIORS. (As an aside, knowing how much he lacks for good writing skills, I think I’m suddenly VERY concerned about the writing ability of high school seniors.)
He needed a 520 in Math and a combined 900 to get in for English. I’m hoping that this is close enough to qualify!!
I think we’re both still a little shell-shocked.

Woot, LM! Nice job! At this rate, when you’re an actual high school senior, you’re going to knock that thing out of the park! 🙂

Woohoo! So my congratulations is a little belated, but I’ve been busy (read: pulling dirt and bugs out of a teething baby’s mouth and telling the big one that no, rainbows don’t talk and no, I don’t think a bedspread would work as a parachute should one decided to jump from the top of the stairs…). I know you must be so proud of that smart boy of yours!
