At my school, almost everyone (who is smart) gets in the 2000-2400 range (someone got actually got a 2400 at my school, and then there are about five or more people who got 2350+).  There are only about 350 people in the senior class.  I took my SAT after my brother's graduation (had to go, and was in the orchestra that played there).  I got home at around midnight, got about six hours of sleep, and then had to get ready and drive to my test taking place. 

Got 1970, which is decent; I got a 1400 in math/reading, so thats fine, but they gave me a seven on the essay and that pissed me off (on all the practice ones in the online study guide that I took from collegeboard, I was getting all 11-12s), but it was probably because I used only half the space and did a three paragraph.  I even slid in Sound and the Fury in my answer, that has to count for something!  I'm fine with that score though, and don't want to take another one.

back in high school i didn't study for the sat at all. my mom woke me up one morning and told me i had an sat to take, i didn't even know i had it that day. so i took it and got a 2200 or something. i don't remember. but i'm in community college anyway so it doesn't matter.

i can't tell if this is serious or not

because why would you go to a community college with that

i took a year off school. i also applied to a bunch of schools last minute and didn't apply to any schools that i cared about.

Jesus, I thought I was reading about me when I read your post.  I had a football game the night before and didn't get home until about 2:00 am.  I had to take the test at 7:30 so I was running on about 5 hours of sleep.  My school is exactly the same as yours, 350 in the senior class with one person getting a 2400 and then a few 2350's.  I got a 1970 on the SAT and my math/reading was a 1400.  They gave me a 6 on my essay.  What were your separate math/reading scores?

exactly why SAT scores don't matter.

uuuuuh what

they do when you apply at the normal time, not when they have the most applications already and when you skip a year of school. not to put chef down or anything at all really though!

i'm just saying i don't like the sats but i don't get the argument THEY DON'T MATTER TAKE THE ACT or whatever is going on...?
