Girl,
I hear ya. We have all been there. It's not procrastination! It's just perfecting your multi-tasking skills. Just think of how good you will feel to get things accomplished to give yourself some motivation. But really, you should look at what's making you not study for these SAT's and all. Maybe you just find it boring or you don't feel it necessary deep down. And you know something? You're right! DON'T STUDY. I am being perfectly honest. In fact, universities are looking less and less at SAT scores since it does not measure your work ethic or intelligence or the consistent level of your performance!
I had a girlfriend who locked herself up every weekend to study for the SAT's along with taking classes. She took it 3 times and I took it once never cracking one of those bijillion prep books that everyone seemed to pass down to me. I also scored higher than she did. Just take it a few times. The only reason your scores improve are NOT because you get smarter. It's simply that you get comfortable with the format and actual taking(is this a word? haha) of the test. And think about it...do you wantlook back with your score in hand, going "I really wish I hadn't worried so much and had more fun my senior year", having wasted a year of your life for 3 hours of some stupid test? Personally, I would rather score 20 points lower or so and have tons of fun and random memories. In the long run...look at what's important to you.
This is your childhood! Have fun and be immature and revel in your lack of responsibility. The world gets too serious too fast. Just go out the night before and blow off some stress. Go to a good movie or play some football with your buddies
. Grab a glass of orange juice and a bagel that morning and have confidence in yourself and your teachers for the past 4 years. You are a lot smarter than you think. Man, I was! Haha.
