So, that World History SAT was a good reminder of why I disapprove of schools in the first place, and I think the process has convinced me to stand by my avoidance of schools. Putting a time limit on learning and finishing them with tests so that one gets a sense of "now I'm done and have no more reason to learn about this" is no way to work or to encourage learning.
I managed to finish the SAT early enough that I was still able to make it to the graveyard board meeting I'd dreaded I'd have to miss, and by the end of the meeting found myself the new chairperson of the Grounds Committee -- job being to supervise the grounds and lead the meetings of this committee, which exists to examine and make recommendations about maintenance and appearance.
So at least today was not all wasted, but I do wish there were a way to retrieve my $35 for the SAT since I won't be needing it now.
