Mine - Its not that great but whatever - I taught myself a language through song translation.

I was heavily into German Rock music while I was in highschool, and I would translate the non-English songs for fun, with google. By graduation, I was almost able to speak the language. Not fluently, but I got by from the people I knew who actively spoke the language.

Its been 6 years and Im not even interested in the music anymore, maybe from constant repetition of the same 4 albums over and over.

Anyway, Whats yours?

Programming. Since I was 8. I now have a very well paying job programming. I mean, yeah, I took classes so I had that slip of paper for my first job. But I taught myself.

SAT or ACT? Only good for college. My ACT score was 32 (which is above 1400 SAT new, 2000-2100 SAT old) and it only helped me in college. After that, no one cared.
