Yesterday during school my advisor mentioned that I was the only one in my advisery not taking the PSAT test. I didn't think anything of it. But then later that day I realized that I was the only one of my friends not taking the PSAT. And while talking to one of my friends about the PSAT, she sounded surprised at the fact that I had opted out of it. That made me start to worry. I had always thought that this test was no big deal. Yeah, there's a possibility to earn a scholarship, but you have to be pretty dang smart to get one of those, and I knew I was not a candidate for that. But this test does give you an idea of what your SAT scores will be; kind of like the PLAN test. Which got me thinking, should I take the SAT test?
My parents have always told me not to follow what everyone else does, but it worries me considering this has to do with getting into a college. I realize that getting into a good school is ideal to everyone, but are the SATs really that important especially if less and less colleges are looking at them?
