Is that the stuff on the SATs? I hated that stuff!

Is that because you know I drink???
Honestly I may as well be 21 at this point.
Raised and cared for 3 children, probably earning more money than my actual mother…

No, you just give off an older vibe than 17. Also because of how close you are with Eris, I figured you were closer to her in age.

I've just had a very busy life, even at (almost) 18, I've experienced more of life than other people my age.
At 9 I was feeding a newborn baby, doing the dishes, washing laundry, making proper meals..

Understandable. People usually think I'm older than I actually am, mainly because I talk and act like a fucking John Green teenager.

I thought you were 15

Makes sense. I meant most people irl though, like the boomery types I meet through church and school and stuff.

What’s Scantron?

What’s Scantron?

At least where I am, it's just a bubble sheet
It's an icky shade of green (at least ours) and the bubbles are small rectangles just larger than your pencil lead, which makes it near impossible to fill in neatly

That looks like absolute chaos and my brain hurts just looking about it.

I would have thought you were the same age as me if we hadn't had conversations about what grade you're in and how old you are already

Yeah, I get that one a lot lol

That actually looks really fun, and easy

I really hope this is a joke
Otherwise I either need to fly over there and make you try or possibly take back all the nice things I've said about you

It's all fun and games until you miss one.
As someone who has bad vision and also ADD, it's a nightmare. Reading the sheet of multiple choice questions they give you and keeping them straight while also filling in those dots in the right order is way too complicated for some basic test to be.

(I honestly have no clue what to say right now, so… That shrug emoji thing)

(I'm really glad I'm not the only one that says that)

And there's a time limit
And you need to use a certain type of pencil and make sure the bubbles are filled in just right in order to get points from the computer.

Just out of curiosity, do you guys know how old I am? Like do I seem like my age to you?

You're turning 18, right? You seem your age (in a good way)

Oof I am turning 18 in May. That feels so old. But thank you

Those Scantrons are horrid. I always have to check everything so many times. Bubbles under the question would be much better/easier.

I just remember you being sad that you wouldn't be 16 going on 17 any more so the FBBS and I pointed out that you'd be the dancing queen now lol

Yeah these bubbles look easy compared to the ones I have to do. And you have to have them filled in perfectly or the machine won't read them

Yeah, or just normal multiple choice. It's like the Iowa test on steroids, but without the free gum.

Jyn is exactly right. And you put one answer in the wrong place and your entire test will be wrong unless you find out and correct it.

Omg yes I remember that
I'll need a new song for 18

Perfect response.

The bubble sheets in my school aren't picky at all. They're perfectly round circles that aren't too big nor small. I love them so much.

And even if/when you do find it, you have to go back and reread the whole test and reanswer every question to make sure they line up with the change.

How old are you Jyn?

Wait, you didn't have to do the Iowa test? I did it until 5th grade iirc

Take them back, because I’m not joking. All my exams were written essays, so putting a line on a piece of paper seems a lot easier

Keep in mind that I'm from Wisconsin and not Iowa.

Then… then… here's the icing on the cake… all the teachers have to do is hold the sheet up to a scanner and it immediately tells you the scores.
