Full transcript
- 0:00you want to go here well then listen up
- 0:01because today I'm going to be giving you
- 0:03guys some rapid fire tips to absolutely
- 0:05demolish the reading and writing section
- 0:06of the digital sat because it really
- 0:08doesn't need to be this hard so let's
- 0:10get right to it first everything you
- 0:13need to know is right there in the
- 0:15passage one of the ways that college
- 0:16board tries to trick you is by giving
- 0:18you passages over topics and Concepts
- 0:20that you probably have some previous
- 0:22knowledge on so when you're walking into
- 0:23the testing here make sure that you're
- 0:24leaving all of your expertise on all the
- 0:26literature you know at the door when
- 0:28you're reading through your passages
- 0:30them as if you've never even heard of
- 0:31the topic before and when you're
- 0:32answering those questions make sure that
- 0:34you're justifying your answer choices
- 0:36using only facts and information found
- 0:38in the text second the SAT is not
- 0:40subjective which means that there is
- 0:42only one 100% correct answer to every
- 0:45problem you have to keep in mind that
- 0:47this is a standardized test taken by
- 0:48millions of people each year and before
- 0:50you guys start asking me in the comments
- 0:52well how do I know which answer choice
- 0:53is right let me teach you guys how you
- 0:55can quickly figure this out now you've
- 0:57probably been told like a million times
- 0:59before that oh if you just just spend
- 1:00more time reading the passage than
- 1:02actually answering the questions and
- 1:03you'll magically get every single
- 1:05question correct wrong here's what
- 1:07you're going to do instead as you're
- 1:08reading through a passage mentally and
- 1:11you can also physically do this
- 1:12paraphrase the text in your own words
- 1:16what you're going to want to do is as
- 1:17you're reading through that text
- 1:19highlight those words you guys can
- 1:20actually annotate in Blue Book as you're
- 1:23reading through a quickly chot down oh
- 1:25this means this this means this so when
- 1:27you're answering the questions it's so
- 1:29much easier on your part doing this not
- 1:31only helps you to get the right answer
- 1:32at the end of the day but it will also
- 1:34keep you actively focused on the passage
- 1:37once you've PA phrase the text it is now
- 1:39time to find the right answer instead of
- 1:41confusing yourself by going through each
- 1:43answer choice and saying okay well this
- 1:45seems right but this also seems right
- 1:47literally stop doing this instead go
- 1:49through each answer choice and ask
- 1:50yourself what is wrong with this answer
- 1:53does it stray or deviate away from the
- 1:55point being asked in any way does it
- 1:57talk about a part of the text completely
- 1:59irrelevant to the question does it even
- 2:01relate to the question being asked the
- 2:03hardest part of approaching these
- 2:04reading questions is honestly just
- 2:06trying to figure out what the heck
- 2:07you're reading in the first place but if
- 2:09you can do that then finding the correct
- 2:10answer is as easy as clicking like on
