Aww Donna, that took alot to admit that and i admire you for doing that...  YOU GO GIRL!!!  :yahoo; You can do this, you have the best group of supporters here cheering you on  :bandance; :bandance; :bandance; 

Thank you!  That really means a lot to me for you to say that.  I'm going to find out when  Bergen County, NJ has it's testing done and hopefully I can do it.  I know the math will kill me though.  >:(  Masybe I can get some kind of tutor or someone to help me.

Thanks
Donna

You know Donna, there are always college students (and even some high school students) that are always looking to make a few dollars, check the adds in the paper to see if there are any tutors in your area,  :2thumbsup;   I am so excited for you,  :bandance; :bandance;

Hey Donna, thank you for sharing.  That must of been hard to admit.  I understand about the math, it's my worst subjest but still it is my favorite subjest too. "Go figure"

Well folks, I didn't finish up the pretests Tuesday.  I didn't get any studying in last weekend.  I still need to work on geometry.  Instead of studying I was out jetskiing.  :P  :bandance;  :P  But I rescheduled and I'm going in next Tuesday.

Ok, I finally finished the pretesting this past Tuesday.  Pasted it all, above average.  On the 23rd I start the real testing.

Kit....on the essay, they score it a 1-4, and I got a 3.  My topic was; "A successful person in your life".  I chose to write about my mom.  It turned out well for not writing something like that in about 10 yrs.

Quick update....

I had graduation on June 8 at Barton Community College.  So I'm finally a High School Grad.  Yippie....It was a great turnout, I had alot of my family their. There was also a celebration for people that got their citizenship papers. That was cool. So now that I'm moving to Omaha I'll probably go to UNO or the community college.
