PCC

I had a horribly long day. I went to the park for a few minutes after school with Jon and Leeor, then my lesson, and finally to this really stupid placement test at PCC. Unbeknownst to me I have to take all 3 placement tests—reading, writing, and math. Because of my confusion, I only was able to take 2 today. I got 1 out of 25 wrong on the “college algebra” test, and all 36 correct on the writing section. It was the “most easiest” thing I’ve ever done. Needless to say, I placed into calculus I as planned. In order to take Mth 251, one has to be either concurrently enrolled in, or place into Wr 121. In order to place into Wr 121 I have to take both the reading and writing placement tests: all in order to take a math class! What balderdash! At least I don’t have to pay to take them. And then there’s all this other weird paperwork, these appointments I have to make, and permission letters I must obtain from my counselor, all because I’m under 16. It’s slightly annoying.
