  • The only musical that has ever not made me throw up was Sweeney Todd. Don't know if that's what you mean, though.

  • No that's fine. If that's how feel then that's how you feel.

  • Taking the ACT next week so I can duel enroll in my local college and high school. So that is kind of stressful, bu to only need to get 19 to be part of the duel enrollment program, so I am pretty confident.

    It will just affect that college as it is not a national one.

  • So how does everyone feel about musical theatre?
    That is my wife's shit! She actually had a theatre scholarship in college and was offered a choir one as well, but she felt like she should only do one of the two. She loved to do the singing and dancing bits when they were in plays, having choreographed a couple numbers. Not really my cup of tea, though.

    Fun fact: There is no penalty for guessing as you aren't deducted points for incorrect answers. Just fill in a random bubble for the rest of the questions if you're out of time. I only really answered about 3/4 of the questions and filled in the rest randomly, and I think I got a score of like 36 or something. Top 1% in the nation. Just don't sweat it.

  • Are you guys talking about that international test conducted by that Australian university on grade 10s and 11s? Because I did exactly what Gerrick did when I got in time trouble. Also ended up in the top 1% of SA with both Math and English.

    Nope, I live in the usa. The ACT and the SAT here are the general tests of readiness for college, not technically mandatory by all Colleges but your very unlikely to get in without taking it and most Colleges require it.
    Some Colleges or university's offer dual enrollment programs so that you can be in high school and taking college classes and the credits you gain will count toward both.

    Well, ACT stands for American College Testing -- it's been around like forever, but it sounds like it's pretty much the same thing.

    Good on you. Doesn't hurt to snatch up as many credits as you can when you're already doing the work. I think I did the same for pre-calculus, statistics, and Spanish.

    That's awesome for your wife! I wish her the congratulations for that! I'm not nearly that good, especially not at the dancing parts, because I've only really started getting into theatre this year.

    Taking the ACT next week so I can duel enroll in my local college and high school. So that is kind of stressful, bu to only need to get 19 to be part of the duel enrollment program, so I am pretty confident.

    It will just affect that college as it is not a national one.

I only really answered about 3/4 of the questions and filled in the rest randomly, and I think I got a score of like 36 or something. Top 1% in the nation. Just don't sweat it.
    I second that. I can coach you on some of the sections if you'd like. I actually took the test last March (I got a 34 composite), yet I believe the test format has changed since then. But I can still help, because I don't think the changes were too drastic. It's not too much of a worry, and plus you can send the score to potential colleges come senior year. Regardless, good luck next week!

    And the dual-enrollment is definitely something to undertake, especially if they're paid for by your school district as is mandated in my state :) Last year I was had dual enrollment for calculus and next semester I'm going to be dual-enrolled in linear algebra and differential equations. It's a lot of fun, helps you be taken seriously by students, and gets you credits towards a degree.

  • I think the same can be said whether you were questioning why they're making another Chipmunks movie or why they're releasing it on the same day as Star Wars.

  • When you're making a bad movie, you really don't want to release with something like that.
