    Again if someone disagrees with any of these go with that. It's been a long time since I've even thought about this except in terms of quantum theory, the LHC, string theory etc.

    i don't have experience with those exams myself, yet I think of they would be standardized exams of a few type. probable math, analyzing comprehension, and doubtless composition. there is probable a scale of what's seen passing (that they are going to provide help to pass into 9th grade). as an occasion, in case you score slightly decrease in a single section, yet especially in yet another, they are going to known it. The content cloth will probable be on the point of a try that somebody who is going into 9th grade could obtain, to be sure in case you're able to do 9th grade artwork. i'm no longer thoroughly constructive nevertheless, so do no longer quote me on it. in case you get there, great for you. in case you do no longer, do no longer trouble. 8th grade is relaxing and existence will pass on. Do your ultimate!

    Well by the title ( fell) = Fail. maybe you should have paid attention better in school. you know study !

  • 1 decade ago

    seems like you will FAIL science....and you only want someone to do the work for you; i.e. figure it out!

  • 1 decade ago

    I guess next time you'll work harder, huh?

    And it's "Fail" by the way.
