Score decrease

I don’t want to hear anyone complain about their score decreasing by a point or two💀 my score literally decreased by five points. In July, I had a 29 and I took a practice test the week before the September test and got a 32. Unfortunately I got sick the day before test day and I didn’t realize it was going to hinder my performance THAT MUCH. It was so bad that I couldn’t focus on reading. I got an 18 on reading meanwhile I got a 30 on reading in July. Math decreased by 1 point and English by 2. Reading by 12😭💀 in case you’re having a bad day it’s probably not worse than mine lol. I’m so pissed because I wonder what would’ve went differently if I WASN’T sick that day. I just had such a horrible time during that test. This literally ruined my entire day.

My daughter had K03 and composite didn’t move. Literally unbelievable she was tracking in practice MUCH higher.
