stress Tests Throughout a student ' s high school career, there are many stressful situations to be faced. To some, just the decision about what to wear to school in the morning is a crisis, but for most students the main anxiety producers are the dreaded SAT and ACT tests. As if it weren ' t bad enough that the brain will be taxed beyond repair, one must also give up a Saturday (and the Friday night before) in order to be subjected to such torture. The SAT, or Scholastic Apti- tude Test, is a measure of your aptitude or ability to obtain higher knowledge while the ACT or American College Test is a mea- sure of already learned facts and figures. Some ways to possibly help diminish the stress arc available. There are books at the library and also classes aimed at improving knowledge and test scores. There are conflicting opinions about the validity and usefulness of both tests as a standard for college entrance. Some schools require both tests while some only require one or the other. Junior Sarah York feels that The tests are beneficial to take because they give colleges something else to look at besides a student ' s grades. The best advice to reduce stress is to have the faith that others have survived, and plan in advance to get the help you need so that you can take both tests with confidence and have a mini- mum of nausea, nail-biting, hair pulling and brain damage. Working against the clock, junior Katie Everhardus concentrates on the mathe- matics section of the SAT in hopes of scoring well. photu by Paul Donar .»CT , IM i M III IIMII I I IIMJ II Ml ' c»«-7i; ' ' s, 124 SOPHOMORES
