"When I signed up, I was a little nervous, so when I saw that I had the option [to choose sections.] I loved it because I didn't have to be forced to take something that I didn't want to."
Brooklyn Dismuke
Grade 11, Dallas, TX
"I feel like [having more time] significantly helped. When I would do the practice tests, I was getting on the edge of the time every single time. This time I had time to review almost every section."
Noah Clements
Grade 11, North Caldwell, NJ
"I just kind of wanted to take the science because if I didn't it'd be like the same thing as taking the SAT. I want to go into medicine."
Addison Barnes
Grade 11, Mansfield, TX
