When I took the SAT we had to write essays. Oh, and we weren't allowed to use calculators either.

Looks like they may need to another dumbdown adjustment again pretty soon.

When I took the SAT back in the mid-70's, I had to walk to the test site, uphill, in both directions, during a blizzard the third week of May.
