Well, because of all the fog up here, there's a two-hour delay. So, I have come to voice something that I found completely wrong with the PSAT.

I took it yesterday. No, it wasn't hard and it's not the test itself that I had an issue with. Nope, it the whole College Board info thing.

The College Board wants you to give your race, language, and religion on their. Race- white. Language- English, the only language I can speak fluently. Religion- err, where's the code for Agnostic?

It was the religion codes that got me. Of all 43 of the options, only Judaism, Sikhism, and Hinduism, "other", "no preference or affiliation", and "i prefer not to say" were the ONLY options that WERE NOT Christian denominations! Good Lord people! Can't you idiots just say "Christian"?

Either Christians have to come to some sort of common ground about thir teachings, or the PSAT people need less time to work on religion codes! :mad:

lol such infos are so dumb (*spoken in a thick texan accent*) (what has race and religion to do with anyway?)

Ah, yes. The PSAT/NMSQT. That test was a sucky experience.

I believe the code for agnostic was "97".
And they need more races on there. They're missing some stuff...

or leave the question off altogether

how does religious affiliation help psat/sat scores

this is an illegal question to ask for employment

It's for scholarships.

For example, Notre Dame wouldn't want to recruit Jews. :) :eek:

Fog? FOG?!?

I've had to go to school despite six inches of freshly fallen snow and now they delay schools because of fog?

Wow. Just.... wow! :eek:

better not get any federal funding

they will lose in court

It's North carolina. :rolleyes: They also cancel school for a light dusting or snow and tropical storms/depressions.

It's fun when they cancel school for tropical storms. I stay home and play in the rain. I go shopping during Category 1 hurricanes (no lie, I actually did that at the start of seventh grade! :eek:)

Yeah.

But Jesus Christ, I never knew there that many Christian denominations!

I don't have problems with Christians at all, their religion just didn't work out for me, but DAMN!

Yeah... Christians have a lot of petty differences...

It's almost like having different forms of physics based on whether light is a wave or a particle.

When compared to Christian sects it is based on whether light is a wave, a particle, or a cigarette lighter.

It has a lot to do with scholarship providers.

You haven't even scratched the surface. Think thousands ;)
Are you serious btw that they did not have an option for Islam ?

You get delays for fog?!

Up here fog is usualy around the same time of year as freezing rain

The fog just pushes it over the edge of drivable

Lemme guess...you had to go uphill both ways, too. :p

With no shoes. Over hot coals. And broken glass. And pools of lava. And past that house with the really scary dog.

And past the park bench where that old man used to sit, doing weird things with his hands in his pockets.

But it's both!:eek:

And we liked it that way! *waves cane in the air*

Oh, and that's for statistics. They (yes THEY, friends of THEM) like to classify people like objects so they know how well groups of objects are doing in relation to other groups of objects, some objects being more valuable than others, you see. And while the former part of that statement might be true, the latter is certainly unsubstantiated, but at any rate, it might be involved in those silly affirmative action laws that frell the whole system.

Who wouldn't? It's like an Indiana Jones movie.:D
