CBEST: Check!

So the CBEST is no longer on the itinerary, as I received official confirmation of my passing of the test.

It was funny, b/c mi hermano told me that it was a no problemo test, and then dad goes and gets me the CBEST manual 3-inch-thick study guide to the test. I ignore it until the night before the test, and then out of curiosity check it out. It turns out that there was going to be (according to the book) a LOT of material covered, among them many mathematical concepts that I had not seen for a long time (since like high school).

So anyway, I panic and study 'til about 1 a.m., and then the brother tells me not to stress out, that it'll be fine, and I'll pass.

I get there, take the test, and, having the last hour of four to write my 2 essays, finish my last essay maybe 10 seconds after the CBEST rep. tells us to stop...and I finish my last sentence as she says something to the effect of, "...and those who keep writing after I stop will have their entire test voided."

That got my attention, and I finished up (thankfully)!

So yeah, CBEST down, CSET and RICA up next.

Thank God I passed!!!

CBEST mañana

I'm taking the CBEST tomorrow at 8:00 on the morning of a Saturday. I've heard it's not terribly difficult, but should be interesting because I'm in "School's Out" mode right now. We'll see if I'm even able to concentrate and finish with a pass...

Oh, and I got one "B" and five "A"s for Spring 2010...do je Ye So!

So yeah, should be interesting. CBEST here I come.

End of the Semester...

I can see the end in sight. Just one more week, then assessment week, and then it's summer!!!

'Course the CBEST is in June, but hopefully that will go over well...
