"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I just got back my SAT Score and it was 1130 for Math and Writing (1550 total with essay)... I really don't now what it means so can someone tell me? does it mean I'm stupid and will end up homeless? I'm so worried that I'm freaking OUT right now, all my friends got scores between 1700-2100 and I feel like a retard! I'm def gonna retake it, anyone got suggestions on how I should prep so I can get a score close to 2000? Also should I take the ACT I heard it was easier.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

definately retake it. youre math + writing score are actually above average, about the 60th percentile id guess. you just ****ed up on your essay. read a book on how to do the essay or something, focus on that part, retake and you should be fine.

Do colleges actually look at the essay score too? I heard that they weren't taking it into account cuz it is a new. Any books you recommend?

dude relax. SAT scores are bull****.

old SAT-out of 1600 avg. score about 1200
new SAT- out of 2400 (they added a timed essay to the test) avg. score around 1800.


Bottom line, SAT score don't really matter as long as they're good enough to get you into college. They're just another b.ull**** standardized test for schools to say, "oooh look at how good we are at teaching" or "oh s.hit! We're not doing our jobs, lets fire a bunch of people". Besides, they only measure your reading/writing and math. Wow, like thats all there is to life. Whatever happened to science, history, geography, etc? :confused:

I totally bombed mine and got a 1400 (lower than you), and that was on the new test. And guess what? I graduated from high school with honors, and then placed extremely high in my college placement tests. I don't wanna sound like I'm bragging, but I consider myself to be pretty damn intelligent, particularly for my age. Hell, I graduated early. My advice, don't look too much into it.

You wanna know how I studied for it? I didnt. Unless you're trying to get into Harvard, I wouldn't waste my time. I had better things to do, like play video games, go to the mall, play basketball, flirt, etc. Just go to a community college. They let everybody in, its easier, and cheaper.

Where are you trying to go to school?
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Probably a state school cuz I get a free-tuition scholarship cuz of perfect score in MCASS. I'm thinking of UMass Amherst, Dartmouth or Lowell. I was thinking of goin to a business school (Babson, Bently or Bryant) but with 3.0 GPA, 1120 SAT and no money it probably won't happen. Where do you go to school now?

Ah...I don't know about you then. I just went to a community college. I knew I couldnt afford a four year university, so I kinda just said, "**** it. You could be mentally retarded and get into a junior college, why the hell should I worry about SAT's?" So I didn't, just kinda woke up one morning and was like, I guess I better get the SAT's out of the way, drove over took em, went home and went back to sleep. No studying, no worries. ehh, worked out me. haha

SAT`s are important when your appplyng to schools , they look at the scores more then your grades .....
they might chose someone with "sligtly" lower grades then you but with higher sat scores then you....

so dont think its a bull**** test and isent worth aything...

ofcourse this is all meant if you want to get into a good uni.... not a community college.....

ofcourse standerdized tests are idiotic , but when your given oranges you gotta make orange juice ...

The average old SAT score was around 1000, not 1200. And you said your score of 1400 was lower than CCKazi's 1130...... I take it your math score wasn't too high.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I only got a 1260 on mine with all three sections.

I managed to get into the fourth best education college in the country with an ivy league legacy. SAT scores means nothing. People look more at your transcripts than the SAT scores and community service and essay.

they matter.. id say its about 60% gpa 30% sat and 10% activities and reccomendations for non-top 20 schools

for top 20 schools its more like
gpa and sat dont really matter.. everyone gets 4s and really high sats there. so its more about 60% course selection 30% activities and 10% reccomendations

i got a 2100.. and im going to james madison university. not a good school, not a bad school. (3.3 gpa before senior year, 2.6 during senior year, 3.1 overall i think) and junior + senior year i took 7 APs

Also, a lot of schools look at your ACT. Make sure you figure out which one your target college looks at. Some look for just one, some look for both.

GPA was a 2.7 (in a school where 3.2 was the average) when I was applying. I got it up to 3.0 at the end of the year, but it didn't matter by then, already had my acceptances.

As for proof of the 2100, I'd have to go home and scan the score sheet, assuming I still have it lying around. Or you could just take my word for it.

Schools I applied to: Rutgers, Syracuse, Drexel, Northeastern, Villanova.

reread his post. He said his combined score was like 1550, 1130 before the essay. Last I checked, 1500 was more than 1400.
