I’ve never taken the test before this year, and from what I’m told it’ll not only contain the answers to the questions and whether or how to get them correct, but also the questions themselves and the materials they refer to! Once those apart of the ‘Herd’ (as I like to call us) receive this, we’ll not only be able to refresh memories of the obvious inside jokes (cows, potatoes, translators, ect.) but we can also create jokes from some of the not-as-catchy questions (which no one will suggest to this blog… yet).Students in the United States took the 2014 PSATs on October 15th, 2014. I say “for now” because those who take the PSAT receive a booklet back with their scores in I believe December.

I’ve always loved this fandom from day one because it’s a fandom which, for now, only has had its ‘canon’ material viewed once (particularly from form to form). This blog constantly gains notes and follows on a steady - yet slowing - rate.
