I am sick of SAT RU-vid; however, I must watch Mike's video.

I prefer: “I am sick of SAT RU-vid videos; I, however, must watch Mike’s video.”

But the I, however, makes it seem like there are others in the previous sentence or smth and you are kinda special or different among them. @@SetteleTutoring

Hey, I just want to say thank you for everything you have done for the community. I just got home after taking the SAT and all I have to say is that the second module was horrendous. All if not most questions that were supposed to contain charts and graphs are now modified. I believe I got the harder module since there were no charts and graphs for the questions, instead, they have paragraphs as choices that contain numbers. For the second math module, there were a lot of geometry questions and open response questions. I believe I didn't do so well because of how little time I have left after getting to the final questions. I will post my score in the comments after I receive them.

Second module of Reading or Math? I find the Reading graph questions can be very hard in the second module. There aren’t very many chart questions in Math anymore, at least on the practice tests, unless they’re just charts of points. Graphs could always show up, but those are also just charts of points. I’m curious which subject you thought was horrendous.

@@SetteleTutoring Both second module became hard later on as I made progress. For the 2nd reading and writing module, those command of evidence questions where a graph or data table is shown is gone and all stuffed into the choices as large paragraphs. For the 2nd math section, the final few questions were either very lengthy, multi-step geometry questions (tangents, finding a component of a 3D shape, etc.), or you couldn't pinpoint the value of a variable on desmos that would make two equations parallel. I've been prepping for the May SAT for two month so I wouldn't say I was well prepared.

Two months is on the lower end of what I recommend for prep, but it’s not nothing. I’m sure you learned a lot of important strategies and topics. The key to getting those last few hard ones, especially in Math, is to have big picture strategies that help in lots of different situations, instead of trying to learn specific steps for each question type. For example, I bet the strategy of making triangles that I talked about in my May predictions video would have been useful on the 3d geometry questions.

I didnot get how to punctuate ,however; vs ;however, I mean how do we differentiate is there a clear strategy

@SetteleTutoring Месяц назад

I’m not really sure what to say beyond what’s in the video. I recommend rewatching it. The “however” is in different sentences when it’s before or after the semicolon. Putting “however” in a sentence shows a contrast with the previous sentence. The strategy is to figure out where the contrast goes. It will be different every time, so there isn’t a rule you can follow for the punctuation that works every single time.

Use my summaries of the sentence. Which makes more sense? B) Ebenezer is famous for inventing the G-chord. His promotion of jazz is more important, but he opened a jazz club in Berlin. C) Ebenezer is famous for inventing the G-chord, but his promotion of jazz is more important. He opened a jazz club in Berlin.
