Awesome! That`s great! Now you can somewhat relax....until Plebe Summer, that is!
Wings ... congrats!
Clarification ... your scores are reported in SAT mode. Were all in fact taken from SAT testing experiences?
I'm unsure of what you mean by SAT mode. They are all scores which I have acquired from actual SAT testing experiences.
Congrats WoH!
One small piece of advice for all you early appointment people out there... Do not throttle back now. Do not let Senioritis kick in and you miss a grade here and there. There are horror stories out there of people easing way back and getting a low grade and getting a sorry but we're taking this appointment back because you failed semester 8 math. But do relax and enjoy your senior year a HUGE weight has just been lifted off your shoulders and you've EARNED this high you're feeling right now. Be proud and hold your head a little higher today!
You answered my question, i.e. was one of your subject area scores from SAT and the other from ACT? One from each? Which was which? Or both from same test (NOT test event)? Which exam, i.e. ACT or SAT?
Again congrats! NOW the work begins anew! And it'll be like you've never "newn!"
Re: Boozebin's good point ... allow me to add one that is far more important than the grade. It's called "LEARNING!" And while grades and mental engagement might be coincident, as we all know, not necessarily, especially as seniors. You want to remain mentally engaged, actively learning, and preparing for both your exemption exams AND the mental challenges of Plebe summer and year. THAT's the real point.
I would also like to add that I submitted 3 additional letters of recommendation! They were all wonderful; one consisting of a Navy Captain who has known me since my elementary school days!
Again, my apologies for the confusion!
