Good luck, Jessica - I know these are important tests.

I thought it was English! In Spanish I'd say "apodo" or "alias" (though in forums we say nick)

Well, Laepelba has answered correctly.

Well, Laepelba has answered correctly.
I guess it is correct in American English, and perhaps used on the internet, but I have never heard it in British English, always nickname.

I've actually never heard it used in American English. I just know that Jessica changed her nickname recently, and it was probably easier for Irma to type "Nick"....

I don't think I did too well on the Critical Reading section. It's not my favorite part. I'm sure I did well on the math and writing section (no essays in this test, only in SATs)

In Spanish forums we say "nick". I thought you did, too

Jessica, what are you asked about in a Critical Reading section?

I'm sorry for my ignorance, but I don't know that is a SAT's, it at least in my country seems more a Hacienda publica.


I'm glad that you had gone very well in the last test Jchen, you should address more your attention in the public when you have more event above this kind.

Congratulations again.

It's a commonly used abbreviation for "nickname" in English online forums and IRC, too.
