New Year; New You

Thursday January 1, 2009

If one of your New Year’s Resolutions was to learn how to respect the little hands that twirl around on the face of the old clock, then this article is for you.

Standardized testing deadlines are approaching quickly, and you definitely don’t want to be late. Not this year, right? That procrastination stuff is all behind you – left in the detritus of 2008. Right next to the Sarah Palin jokes, economic meltdowns, and those ugly gigantic flowery dresses all the stylish women were wearing. Ugh.

This is your year, so grab some coffee, shake off the hangover, and pay attention to the following deadlines:

January SAT: Registration deadline = PAST/Late Registration = Ends Jan. 9

February LSAT: Registration deadline = Jan. 6/Late Registration = Ends Jan. 16

February ACT: Registration deadline = Jan. 6/Late Registration = Ends Jan. 16

January MCAT: Registration deadline =Jan. 16/Late Registration = Ends Jan. 23

It’s a new year, so make it a new you. Register on time for once and skip that late registration fee.

The moths chewing at the leather of your empty wallet could use the extra sustenance.
