1. Denial- This can't be happening. My difficulty with the LG section shouldn't tank my score too much. My guesses probably were right. I'm going to get a 178.

2. Anger- Why me? It's not fair. I did well on the games section on each practice test. Well, almost every practice test. All but two of the 40 I took were relatively easy for me.

3. Bargaining- If I score at least a 168, I promise to use my degree only for good. Money? I care not about money.

4. Depression- LG probably killed me and I may have done a bit worse than usual on RC as well. Oh well, that's it. I scored a 150. Cooley here I come. I will never make more than a dog catcher.

5. Acceptance- Well, it is what it is. I'm probably going to do worse than I had hoped, and that's OK. I most likely did well enough to get into Miami with my 159-ish score. At least they have a great campus and a prominent football program.

Yeah, it wasn't very good. I was trying to be funny. Sorry if it was offensive in addition to being offensively stupid.

exactly what i'm going through except it's cyclical for me. If I got usual -0 to -2 on LG, i'm virtually guaranteed a 170+, but i think i might have gotten up to 6 wrong with at least a -4...

I think I'm going through 4 stages at once...excepting acceptance... one moment it'll be anger, the next bargaining, then right away depression.

Interesting post OP. I'm at the "depression" stage.
