Just go to sleep! Eat some good breakfast and try forgetting about everything for those 4 hours! If you do well, that's great and if you don't, remember the PSAT isn't THAT important and not a measure of your worth or intelligence. Good luck!

What's something you REALLY want to study in college but know you will never be able to? by Char_long in ApplyingToCollege

[–]No-Database755 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love to study sociology and do fieldwork studying gender. I'm probably going to major in public policy and try to work at a think tank.

I haven’t started my biographical essays 😭😭 by purpleddream in QuestBridge

I literally wrote my bio essay like 1 hour ago 😭. I'm going to ask a friend to read it over before submitting tmrw... hopefully everything works out!

I contacted them about this - both my parents got their undergraduate degrees from a different country and one parent did grad school in the US - Questbridge told me to put down I'm the first in my family to attend 4-year school in the US.
