It was hard and it lasted much longer than I expected (it took us an hour and a half to get in the test room, register, and listen to the instructions we were all aware of), but after Section 2 I did not feel stressed anymore. I had done a lot of full practice tests (they really are the key to success on the SAT) and had taken a two-week SAT intensive summer course. My arguments on the essay were quite personal. Luckily, the result shows they were also relevant.
To everyone taking the SAT in the future: don't be afraid of the test. Yes, it's hard and long, but with enough practice and calmness you'll do fine.
To Erin: I really like TestMagic. Not only it helped me with my exams but I also met a few very nice and ambitious people here. I intend to participate in the forums much more actively right after my application process is over in a month or so. Thanks for creating and maintaining such a cool place!
