I had to take the Praxis, which is basically the teacher's equivalent, and I'm still waiting to find out my scores. I'm getting kind of anxious about it.

Regular ol' GRE - pretty easy. Did swell without any studying.
Physics GRE - that on the other hand...

Whatd you get, if you dont mind saying? I didn't study at all and I want to see how I did comparatively.

Honestly, I don't remember the exact score but I just remember it was pretty decent. Sorry.

I did OK. Not as good as I'd have liked.

I thought it was really hard. I felt like I did terrible, so I just ended up denying my scores.

I wanted to do that, but decided not to when I considered how much it costs to take.

I have to take these soon. I did ok on the SAT so I'm hoping I do well on the GRE.

I simply pose the million dollar questions. If I had the monetary capability to actualize them, I would.

i was a science major... it seems like the math only freaks out non math/science people. i didn't have to review any of the math... just did problems/practice tests. my english prep was interrupted by a move, so i wasn't too pleased with that score. i still got close to my sat score without putting in nearly as much time or effort.
