    i would recommend trying to bring earbuds with you ( like the type you get on planes). I did not expect that there would be many people with me in my exam and was entirely distracted, which dipped my score from an expected 90% to 80%. It may not sound like a lot but i was aiming for above 82.5 for the college ready bracket and it is a really annoying issue which could have been fixed with previous thought, so i will have to take the exam again. I did not think that something so small as mouse clicking could totally throw my game and it better to be safe than sorry.

      Nope. Only on the RLA test.

      I mean... I guess it won't hurt you to get better at writing, and maybe the skills you're learning will transfer over to the RLA (which *does* have an "extended response") but I 100% promise you there is no longer any writing on the social studies test. They got rid of it in 2016. Some current textbooks do still include it, but they shouldn't, because it no longer exists. After you take the test, report back!
