Also, this is reuploaded since I explained a question wrong the first time! Thanks to a commenter for pointing it out and making this into a more accurate resource for everyone. Definitely a nice lesson for me on double-checking yourself...good for the SAT and for life XD
these videos are so helpful, thank you for making them!
I Was never great in school I was always just focused on the wrong part of it and ended up with a gpa in the 2s I have always been great when I tried but never did and when I wanted to go to the school of my dreams I was way below the deck I started learning off of your channel and am already scoring very high in the 1000s on the practice tests and hopefully do great in may
Thank you so much for your videos
Definitely love your SAT tips
Thanks... cant wait for the math section :)
Thank you so much your videos are really good
Hi Anna, I think I've pretty much been watching you since your first SAT video. It's great to see you again. Anyway, what extracurricular activities did you do?
Thanks so much! I have a video on my stats+extracurriculars on my channel that goes in depth about that :)
Hi Anne, thank you so much
Thank you! Please do a video on writing college essays
I did! It’s the one on my channel called “the ultimate guide to writing your college essays” :)
@@annas-universe found it
Nice to see you again!What's extra curricular activists are impressive to Harvard,MIT and is there any way to get better chance to get into those universities
Thanks! Good to be back. To maximize your chances if I were you, would make sure your sat score was a mid-1500 or above, be getting nearly all As while taking the most advanced curriculum at your school possible, and excel at whatever extracurricular(s) you are passionate about. This depends on what your interests are..for example, if you play an instrument, try to get some high-level awards that go along with playing that, be the first chair in your section, and/or teach other people how to play or do some creative form of outreach related to it. If you like to program, try designing and marketing an app, entering coding competitions, or teaching others how to code. Basically, putting a creative and impressive spin on the interests you already have is a great way to succeed! This won’t guarantee anything of course since college decisions are very random, but finding what you’re passionate about and working hard now will set you up for success in life, too, even if you don’t get in! :D
@@annas-universe Thanks 💗 you are really helpful,you are very exceptional than the other youtubers who are arrogant and you are definitely not, thanks for your time take love and go ahead,
Hi Anna!
I think for the last question, D is correct not because “their” is more concise than “his or her”, but because “their” would refer to “today’s students” which is plural. Also, technically, the singular they/their/them can be used only when it refers to a person with no gender, not either gender.
Yep--that too! I prolly could have mentioned that.
Though about the singular they--it's pretty commonly used even outside of referring to nonbinary people, basically whenever you don't know the gender of someone you're referring to or whenever you want to remain gender neutral. Like, if someone says "my friend went to the store the other day", someone could respond with "did they get milk?".
@@annas-universe I did some research into it, and it seems like the singular they is a controversial subject. Although the gender-neutral, singular they has become increasingly acceptable, CB insisted that SAT test takers should use the less progressive “he or she” whenever the gender of a person is not specified. So, the singular they is technically incorrect according to “SAT grammar.”
As an aside, some academic organisations such as the APA endorse the singular they.
That's good to know! Yeah it makes sense that CB would be a little behind the times on that XD
@@annas-universe Lol
Also Anna IDK if you know this but have you heard that the SAT is going digital and changing some formats for the test?
I have heard! I might make a video on how I feel about the new sat in the future (I probably have more negative than positive things to say about it),, but hopefully a lot of the same tips I share still apply
Hi Anna I’m taking the psat this October and I’m really hammering down khan academy, Barron’s flash cards, and some prep books. Do you think it’s enough for me to get a score that qualifies for the nmsqt
I might be able to answer this question. I think those materials should be sufficient, but definitely get the official SAT study guide (the blue book).
I agree with Jumpy Juice that those materials should be good! :) I would probably focus most on taking practice tests (either the official ones or the QAS ones available on the r/sat subreddit) once you feel like you have a good handle on the content so you can master the timing of everything and the real format of the test
Are Khan Academy practice tests are the same as Study guide College Board SAT Practice book (2020 edition)?
ye
@@madison-mj6ne Thank you.
How long does it take you to highlight line references and read each passage of the reading section
It takes me 30 seconds to a minute to highlight everything, and each whole passage takes me 8-10 minutes to complete (I blend reading and answering questions together a lot of time)
@@annas-universe Thank you 😊
@@annas-universe how many mins do you spend reading
@@olatunde9549 It's kind of hard to track since I'm half reading and half answering questions/searching the passage for evidence the whole time, but probably less than 5 minutes total (spread out between answering the actual questions)
@@annas-universe thank you
Hi Anna, do you think I would be able to get an over 1500 score in 6 weeks?
I think it depends on your current score. It would be difficult if you are starting from a 1000 for example, but it’s certainly not impossible.
Thanks, I'm around the 1350 score range
I don’t think it will be a hard task considering your current score. To improve, you will need to polish your strong areas and work out the weaker areas.
First, you need to identify the weaker areas: do a few mock exams, create a spreadsheet to record your mistakes, and try to find the patterns. Once you are done, work on the areas one by one, and see if you have improved. Do this until you are in the >1500 range.
You can find official practice tests on the College Board website and unofficial ones on a page called “50 Official SAT PDFs and 88 Official ACT PDF Practice Tests (Free)”. Unfortunately, I cannot provide the links as my comment will automatically get deleted.
I hope that helps!
Make some new videos related to "DSAT"
I did! Check out my “resources for the DSAT” video-and soon I’ll be launching a series of short walkthroughs of the DSAT questions :)
