Any of you are from Texas and have to take the TAKS tests? Oh my god, I do! :( I haven't studied anything for it and the math part IS TOMORROW! Social Studies on Thursday, and Science on Friday. What do you think of the Texas Academic and Knowledge Skills test? I'm pretty smart, but yet the fact of it being my exit test scares me ... makes me think "What if I don't pass them? Will I be stuck here in High School for another year?" I'm pretty sure I'm gonna pass them, but being nervous can sometimes not help. What should I do to stop being so nervous? Make me think positive people!!! PLEASE :!: :!:

Jump to PostThese achievement-type tests can´t be studied for. They´re just a means for the state to get money from the feds, anyway. Don´t worry about a thing...

Suffrage? So you are voting on your test scores? ;)
suffrage - noun
1. a. The right or privilege of voting; the franchise. b. The exercise of such a right.
2. A vote cast in deciding a disputed question or in electing a person to office.

Same thing!!!...LMAO, deals with scantrons as well. And thanks for the little refresher of the 19th amendment, passed on 1920 that gave women the right to vote. Will definitely use it on the test ;)

Gee!!! Tnx you guys, it's over now, you've been great help.... I thought it was going to be much harder, but I thought wrong.... they were actually easier than the ones I took last year; longer, but yet very easy.
