As one might imagine, I spent all day today doing practice tests, then reviewing the answers I missed.

The morning didn’t start off well.  I took the last in the series of AP US History tests and got the same score as yesterday – not good.  What was good: the CSET practice tests were way easier!  I have to believe that the difference comes down to time: AP tests assume that you have just studied for a year.  CSET tests assume that you have some vague recollection about all you learned over the last four to ten years, and that you might have lost some details along the way.  Even so, I did not do as well on the two (six really) CSET tests as I would have liked.  If there is any bright side, I totally aced both versions of the Civics/Economics/CA History test.  I got 65 – 70% on the rest.  From what I understand, you have to pass the tests by 60%, but that they grade each question based on difficulty.  In other words, you don’t get equal credit for answering the easy questions.  Bottom line, if the actual test is anything like these two practice tests, I should pass.
