fun with SAT??

people who know what SAT is would probably kill me due to the topic of this post..

 My first SAT attempt is the number one regret in my life. It's not that i regret taking the test,  but i regret going into the room unprepared, especially in the lethal critical reading section.

i felt sad to think that we didn't have a really proper exposure on the critical reading section, no one taught us the skills, no one gave us any methods to solve the questions, all we had were blue collegeboard books to figure out what CR is.. With that little knowledge of what CR is, we did our first SAT attempt . It was very frustrating to have read throughout the passage, when in the end you realized that you don't understand it at all and you only have little time left to answer the questions. The sentence completion which test on the vocabulary, really irritate me and i left most of the vocab questions blank so that my marks won't get deducted.

As for the writing section, i wish i could turn back the clock and practice more on my grammar. Although we had a lecturer to teach us writing, the class only covered the essay part and not the grammar part which i believe needs more improvement on. The essay part was fun because it was very subjective. It's actually how you conveyed your idea in the essay.

The math section was the easiest section, i actually enjoyed doing math as i can relax my mind after answering the writing and the head-cracking CR part. Math needs a LOT of practice, if you did enough practice , i don't think 800 is a problem.

Although most of the jpa scholars think that the sime darby scholars will not face any problems on the SAT 2nd attempt, I personally feel that we still have a lot of flaws that need to be addressed.
