Seniors, most dreaded letters: 'Q A Noelle Brown SITTING IN HER car, Sr. Heather Gustaf- son fills in her form for the ACT. Although the application forms were difficult to fill out, they were not nearly as hard as the test itself. BENT OVER THEIR desks, these seniors concentrate on the test in front of them. Test grades were an important part ofa senior's life. , wx' I If X 1 Kurt Tsumura SR. ANNE GREENWOOD stops by the Post Grad. Center to pick up an ACT packet. This was where the seniors went to pick up their test materials and check test dates. 1 Seniors IACT IAND SIAT Months, weeks, hours, minutes of Studying. This was how long most Seniors studied for their ACTS and SATS. Ways of studying for these tests varied from just doing the given sample test to playing the board game of College Pursuit. It was a fun way and also an easy way to Study, said Sr. Tiffany Corley. While most Seniors studied for these tests, others felt it wasnlt necessary to study. ggYou really can't study for them. You either know the stuff on the test or you donltfl said Sr. Gar Kennedy. About 5871 of the seniors took the ACT, 4296 took the SAT, and 48? took both of the tests. Overlandls average scores on these tests usually ranked as well as or better than the other high schools in the ditrict and above the national average. Although these tests were necessary for most seniors to enter college, the majority of the seniors felt the ACTS and SATS were not a perfectly fair way to test their knowledge. They can't judge what your college performance is going to be like just from a score on a testf, said Sr. Garrett Gunter. Most Seniors dreaded those early Saturday mornings of the test more than anything, Saturdays are made for Sleeping in, not for taking in ACTS and SATs,', said Sr. David Brooks. Altogether most seniors despised these dreadful tests, but without taking them, going to college would not be a part of their future. in ll urt 5 N ' Mt il'l 41 , as X I W . rw Il A .nam an-4 x i.2..2 if IK

The word brings to mind many different things to many different people, anything from all-night parties to A.P. classes. Yet, despite the differences in the interests of various seniors, they had one thing in common: the Senior Attitudef' People had many different opinions of what, exactly, the senior attitude was. Sr. Jeff Shesol said, f'There is a definite senior attitude: one of total arrogancef, Sr. Bar- bara Rohr concurred, The seniors think 'Weire better., The underclassmen should get out of our way, step aside when we walk by, because we own the schoolf, Sr. Anjali Budhiraja viewed the senior attitude some- what differently. You,re kind of removedaindifferentf' said Anjali. You're still part of high school, but you're thinking beyond. f'Most seniors just don't care, said Sr. Chris Ainsworth.
