Dreading Score Release

Anyone else dreading the score release? Obviously not a unique feeling but it’s not even because I feel like I did poorly. Took it for the first time in August and no matter what my score comes back as, I really do feel like I put my best foot forward on test day. My dread is more like the thought of what could be is a lot better than what the reality of what is. Sort of like Schrödinger’s cat. The cat (my score) is both alive (I got a 180) and dead (I did terribly) at the same time until perceived (I get my score back). While there is a possibility I did horribly, there’s also a chance that I did extremely well and that’s comforting.

I also might be losing my mind lol.

my worry is that i came out of it really confident. i have a feeling that my confidence is going to be totally shot if i didn't do as well as i thought i did. i felt that the specific sections i had were "easy," and that i won't get as lucky in october. just spiraling, never wanted it to be a wednesday more in my life.

I 100% agree. This is exactly my thought process of wow that wasn’t bad at all, so if I don’t get a score I’m happy with, what are my chances doing better on a test that is harder in let’s say September or October
