      @@thewallpaperguy4038 Do you ever put your hand under your pillow when you lay your head down and the top and bottom of your pillow gets hot (usually the bottom gets hotter)? And then you switch the sides of the pillow to where the cooler side is on the bottom touching your hand and it feels more comfortable? That's why having both sides of your pillow cool is a good thing. 👍

    Notes:
    -All the information you’ll need will be on the test, whether it’s in the passage or the little introduction brief
    -Before reading the passage, skim the questions to see if there’re any summary/theme questions, and take note of the vocab words
    -Remember to read the title/little introduction
    -For vocab questions, read the whole sentence, plus maybe the sentences before and after for context. Then substitute in each answer
    -Know what certain terms are (7:04)
    For two-part questions:
    -Look at the second part and highlight all the quotes in the passage
    -Then read the first question (only the question) and try to see which quote answers every part of the question
    -Compare the quote to the first question’s answers
    For the literature passage:
    -Try to be engaged/to have fun
    -Read challenging books beforehand
    For the debate passages:
    -Read the first passage and answer all the passage-1-specific questions while it’s still fresh in your mind
    -Repeat for passage 2
    -Especially for the Science-based passages, don’t infer anything. Use the passage/graphs to back up each answer

      @@tsillie9555 For the reading passages read them thoroughly and really pay attention. After you finish each paragraph ask your self, "what did I just read", and recap what you read in your brain. If you do this the questions should be very easy and should take no longer tha 40 seconds each. For grammer just do ALOT of practice sections. The kind of questions aked in the grammer section often repeat them selfs from test to test. Once you know them well you will be able to identify that type of question and the best way to answer it.

      You guys will both be ok! Try doing 10-20 minutes of practice each day (using Khan Academy or any other source), or ramp it up a bit if you're really nervous (but don't burn yourself out). Also practice taking a few full tests in a testing environment (timed, only short breaks between sections, etc) if you have the time--it'll really help calm your nerves on test day to have practiced that!

      Good luck! It helps to take as many practice tests as you can to get used to the test format if you want to score 1500+, although since you only have three days left it might be more useful to focus on just your mistake areas + review past mistakes with the time you have. Be sure to get enough sleep the night before and take care of yourself--remember you'll be okay no matter what you score in the end

    • @annas-universe
      @annas-universe  3 года назад +55

      I struggle with that too, but I think it helps to almost read the passages out loud (like, use the same cadence you would if you were reading it to someone else, but try to do it in your head or whisper REALLY quietly so you don't annoy people). Also, reading harder content outside of the SAT can help with your reading comprehension so you're able to stay focused while reading at a slightly quicker pace. If that doesn't work, you can try jotting down little notes (a word or two) after each paragraph to keep yourself engaged, but that might take too long. Hope this helps!

    If you're looking for a paid tutoring service, the one I used was the online version of Prepscholar's test prep! It's what I've recommended to all of my friends (and it's where I got a lot of my reading section tricks from). In my opinion, it's the prep company that most closely matches the questions and format of the actual SAT, and it's one of the factors that helped me get from good to perfect on this section.

Definitely helped with my reading section in the December 5 SAT that I took today :) I really appreciate your channel and all your tips! TYSM

    Gonna rest now to take the test 7-8 hours later. Hopefully I will do well, won't commit careless mistakes, and can score 1500+. I believe my hard work can be paid off (finger-crossed).
    Btw, tks for your tips, it really helps me a lot.
    Update: Just finished the test. Reading is average, not hard but not easy, the first half of Writing Section is pretty simple but the remaining half is lowkey difficult, the Math section is tricky and has a lot of trap questions and geometry. In general, I expect a bit lenient curve for this test.

  • @andrewhuang7841
    @andrewhuang7841 Год назад +3

    I want to clarify something important: everyone has their own way of doing things. Watching videos on SAT tips and tricks doesn't help you sometimes. Most tips and tricks videos tell you their way of studying and doing the questions. They could be like "passage first, then questions" or "look at the questions first, then read the passage" and "the answer is obviously D for this question, look at the passage it mentions it" and think that they helped you. You might feel more confident after watching one of these videos, but in truth these videos do not help you at all if you just started studying for the SAT. The people making these tips and tricks videos already have a advanced mindset by learning from their own experience. For example, as I mentioned earlier, one of the people in the tips and tricks could be like "the answer is obviously D for this question, look at the passage it mentions it" which would seem really easy, but in truth, it's not easy at all. If you had just started studying for the SAT you wouldn't be able to identify and analyze the passage like the person in this video, which is a huge problem: the questions that you think are extremely hard are just basic questions to the "tips and tricks" people and they will think that you already know how to analyze so they will give you some tips like "look at the passage the author says blah blah blah and it is related to the answer choice D so the answer is D for this question" which would make the beginners think they understand but actually makes no sense for them.
    If you still don't understand what i'm saying, here is how a tips and tricks person would react to a question:
    Question: The author mentions "sharpener shavings" (line 10) in order to portray a mood of
    A: unrestrained joy
    B: sentimental reminiscence
    C: bitter disappointment
    D: cautious optimism
    Tips and tricks person: C because you can obviously make a inference in what mood the author is trying to portray
    Average beginner studying for the SAT: ohhhh i get it now (but actually it doesnt help him/her at all
