I got 50% extra time on my test 'cause I'm foreign, so that helped out a bit. Test is too long though. My essay was on how the need for life would be gone w/o materialism

it was definately easier than i expected. it was tooooo long, but not too challenging. i had the materialism essay as well and i wrote about how materialism destroys individuality or something.

Normally personal examples are pretty bad, but i think your might be one of teh few exceptions that I would recommend someone to put on the exam.

I did. I got about halfway through my essay when I realized I only had 3 minutes left so rushed the essay. It was pretty bad. I also didn't have a graphing calculator so the math was sorta hard. I omitted alot though. I was also out at a party last night so I had a tough time waking up.
