   I felt the same way when I took it! I had 75 questions, about 10-15 alternate format. I finished in under 2 hours, and was so upset when the screen popped up telling me I was finished. I got into my car and cried the entire way home. I passed though!...

    "I am gambeling and taking 3 courses even before I am accepted. I know it could be a waste of time and money if I don't get in but I am banking on the fact that I WILL and I will just have to pray my scores were good enough. Ugh. So stressful!" ...
