  1. The SAT is a standardized test. Your test score is related to your answers on the test. The "adversity score" is a 'further information' about the student that takes the 15 factors (whatever they are) and creates a score on those factors (presumably with handy graphs). It is provided to institutions to give an impression of the student beyond the test score. Institutions can use it or not. Two things to note within this, one is that most schools are looking at multiple factors for enrollment now. Take SAT, take HS GPA, take rigor of coursework taken, and take AP, IB or dual enrollment credit into consideration (and for highly selective schools, volunteer work, references, etc). Theoretically this information - standardized by the SAT - could also be used in a multi-factor decision process. Its entirely possible that some schools may have a local version already concocted from their own data about student success at their school. The second is that current data shows that while SAT is a good measure of retention of information, retention of information is not always a good indicator of success at school. For a traditional freshman, current data suggests that HS GPA (even considering grade inflation) is actually a better indicator of potential success in college (but even then, not perfect, hence the use of multiple factors).
  2. The ending of Lost made me lose all of my interest in the series. Even discounting the creators continual instance that they weren't really dead (except in the last season, where they were, apparently), I didn't feel the show ended very well. And its not that they didn't answer any of the interesting questions they had created (although they didn't), but the character stuff that they seemed to want to add closure too didn't work at all, IMO.
  3. If you had pictures of your games, this would be where to place them. Like the previous thread, if you need examples -

  6. RIP The Carol Burnett show was funny, but watching Tim crack up the other cast members on the Carol Burnett show was fun in its own right.
  7. As far as I know, making a new SW:KOTOR would be on Electronic Arts at this time. They have the exclusive Star Wars license for video games.

  15. Lalo Shiffrin's 5/4 time claims another victim. Although based on the recorder skills on display, it was the inevitable outcome.
  16. Bartimaeus - you can always dismiss that banner, but nothing I did yesterday seemed to take it to completion either.
  17. Start of old thread End of old thread Continuing the conversation, last Zoraptor said (sorry can't quote right now) -
  18. According to the two factor thread you still get logged out with two factor. Also in that thread The Guildmaster (admin) states that they are working to fix the time-outs.
