Well once again you bet wrong. I was 78 to 79 in french and a 72 in typing but I was honors everything else. Now in the beginning of my junior year the year before I took physics I took my physics achievement and only got a 640. Yes I knew all about current and magnetic field and how they interact but all the questions were phrased in terms of the right hand rule a memory aid and I did not know what was what in thumbs and finger orientation. I figure not knowing the a memory aid cost me 70 to 100 points. Kinda funny. I had built all kinds of radio, amplifiers, and strobes and electro magnetic stuff before I was 12. 12 to 14 was rockets, boat building and small engine building.
