    I'm basing this off the fact that my mom showed me an email she got telling me my test dates and other information, so I could be wrong. I'm pretty sure my mom didn't lie about my age, though.

    Are you talking about the SAT or the SCAT? A nine year old taking the SAT seems a bit young to me, at least, no offense meant.

    To me, if you could come close to or even outperform students five or more years older than you, I wouldn't really mind if they were seniors or juniors. xD

    My birthday is November 29, so I'm a bit young.

    Edit: I started laughing when I read your post about accidentally putting down your child for 109 years old.

    At nine years old...That's amazing! ;3

    Well, I don't want to get too off-topic, and all there is to do now is wait for my math teacher's reply. Thanks for the advice and support, guys. <3 ;]

    Go get 'em, tiger!

    And BTW, I think it's fantastic that you wrote your own letter--that should impress them right there!

    Lina, I don't know if anyone has mentioned this in this thread, but I'm INCREDIBLY impressed at your handling this situation (and those SAT scores)! You go girl!!!! And kudos to you for writing that letter! I to would recommend letting your parents read it first before sending so they are not blindsided.

    And to date myself, I read GH has General Hospital as well but knew that couldn't be it! blush laugh
