Sir , in khan academy app I learn all rules in grammar but i have old sat sample paper where 66 questions in english,also same as your video but in digital sat specific rules in grammar, i practice them in khan academy and correct 100 percent but in old sat sample paper, it is very different rules specially in punctuations so it is true that grammar in digital sat has fixed rules ,not some common sense rules like old sat

i have done 4 practice tests on blue book (I started at 1110 590 RW 520M, now I am at 1240 670 RW 570M), I'm probably going to run out before exam day, do you still think digital test sites like kaplan tests are a good way to practice ? I really need to work on my math I honestly make silly mistakes on the reading and sometimes not understanding the passage or not knowing vocab. i get about 9 questions wrong on the reading. as for my math really I just need to brush up on my concepts I just don't remember a lot of some of the things its not that they are hard. my goal score is in the 1400 range but I really want to get a 1500 if possible, I believe I can get a very high RW score I just need my math to catch up.

Yep, it sounds like you will need to focus more on math. Look for trends in the types of questions you get wrong and work on addressing those areas.

So far, I'd say the most realistic practice tests can be found in Princeton Review. In terms of explaining grammar concepts and reading strategies, I like Erica Meltzer's books, although they need to be adapted more to better reflect the Digital SAT. I'm not sure about math books because I haven't really used them. I'm actually working on a textbook of my own... it probably won't be ready in time for the August 2024 test, but if I manage to release a beta version, I will leave a link here.

@@ivyleaguementors thank you!! I think the second module of the Reading and Writing Section on the June SAT was really tough (I thought I got a lower score), but the scaling might have helped me get a 770; I probably got 3-5 questions wrong. This was my highest score ever since my best on practice tests was only like a 730, so I am really thankful to College Board for the scaling - first and last time doing the SAT though, definitely done with it

@ivyleaguementors 28 дней назад
It's not just about the resources that you use but how you use them. In my experience, the fastest way to make progress is to look carefully at the mistakes you're making and figure out what is causing you to make them. Was it because you didn't understand the text? If so, why didn't you understand the text? Because you didn't know a key word? Then you need to work on vocab. Because you were rushing? Then you need to work on time management. In addition, look for trends. Are you getting certain question types wrong more often than others? If so, develop strategies to approach those questions and practice them. I have another video where I go into this in more depth: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gRjel1DR3B4.html

I feel my performance was better this Sat. However, everyone saying it was hard worries me, and makes me think I got the easy sections. Anxious for the test results to come out, but kinda excited

The June SAT's reading module 2 surprised me: It had so many reading questions that were either long or confusing for me, especially those complete the sentence and the graph questions which took me very long to find the answer. I feel like even if I had better time management I would still not have enough time to check other answers back The math section was kinda fun to do however I felt that they gave me a lot of questions that played in words which made it tough but also distracting for me. Overall, the June SAT was really tough on the second module on the Reading section and the Math was tricky for an international student like me Also thank YOU a lot for the advice and lessons!
