King of Canterlot 9,603 June 10, 2018 #9002 Share June 10, 2018 I was listening to my music and for some reason I wasn't getting any sound, and I was like "What the heck?", then I started unplugging and re-plugging in my headphones into my laptop to see if maybe they just weren't in all the way, but I still got nothing. Then I was getting scared that my laptop may have an audio issue, when I finally realized that I had muted the sound on my laptop from earlier today and forgot to un-mute it I feel kinda dumb right now, but relieved at the same time 4 RA RA RASPUTIN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some this week. June 12th and June 14th. June 12 noon for Algebra, and June 14th 8:00 in the morning for science. Takes place in the gym, the 90 degree gym since the AC is bound to break. There is no talking, there is no fooling around as this is a STATE test. Obey the state. These tests are 85 questions long and take a minimum of 2 hours, if you miss the day for whatever reason, no matter what it may be (sick, car crash, etc,) you fail the test. If you don't sign your test, it goes right in the garbage. 50 multiple choice, the rest are short answer. There is no fun. No screwing around. And certainly, you must follow directions and do what is told of you. Do what is expected of you to best of your ability, no buts about it. Expand Sounds really serious, I had a provincial math test and it was extremely laid back. Well, I wish you the best of luck on the two test. 3 Ask me something! (If you want to...)
