I took the SAT my Junior year and I received a 1450 composite score. I was very pleased with this score. My reading/writing scores were slightly higher than my math scores, but I performed well on both sections. I would say that my strengths lay in the grammar section. This part of the SAT is my favorite part. I enjoy having set rules to follow and reading the passages. I also like the reading section, especially when I find the passages interesting. Math is probably my weakness, though I am still very skilled in this section. Occasionally, I struggle to remember things I learned a few years ago and miss a problem. I did meet my goal score. I don't plan on retaking the test at the moment. However, after I do a little more research
Two assignments I did exceptional on is the Unit 3 test and Digital Book Summary 1st Quarter because I got A’s on both of the assignments. I think the assignment that challenged me the most was the Unit 3 vocabulary test because it took a tremendous deal of time to study for the test. I would like to advance in the test taking field by studying more seriously and studying for more elongated periods of time. I could also look back and examine all the vocabulary that we have to use on the test. I did excellent in the AR program. My objective was 21 points. I did accomplish my objective because I got 27.5 points. I attained 100% of my objective. My test average is 70%. I achieved 65% on my nonfiction goal. I put a great deal of creativity
Congratulations on passing this sample version of the ASVAB. You might still want to study a little bit more to ensure you get the highest possible score when you take the official version.
My written strength was that my questions were of a wide variety and that most were connected to the question before them somehow. My verbal strength I think was speaking clearly and calmly. I did not rush through the questions and I would often ask him questions about things he said that I didn’t have written down. My visual strength was sitting calmly. I didn’t fidget or do any nervous gestures. I also had weakness in each category that hindered my interview a little as well. My written weakness was not using vivid words to ask questions. I asked the questions without any metaphors and sometimes examples. My verbal weakness was that a couple times I thought Mr. Hartung was done so I would begin to ask the next question but he would interrupt me and finish answering the question. So, next I time I interview someone I will make sure I give them plenty of time to answer and elaborate on their answers. My visual weakness was not making eye contact enough because I had to write down the answers. I think I would have done better if I taped the interview and wrote down the answers after it was
These strengths include organization, participation, and creation of checklists. I feel I stay very organized in this class, as I have all of my documents organized inside my binder ready for a notebook check. In regards to participation, I try my best to raise my hand nearly every class. I stay active and focused so that I can obtain all of the information. I also ask questions frequently which helps me to avoid mistakes or any confusion. My final strength, the fact that I create checklists, has benefitted me immensely. Checklists help to make sure all requirements are met for any project or essay, which is how I received a 91 on my Pilgrim Presentation and an 85 on my Canterbury Tales Short Essay. Checklists have helped me to score higher on assignments with multiple requirements, but not all assignments were as simple as creating a
One of my prime examples of both my academic strengths and weaknesses is my performance in math. I have received more than one C in my high school math classes. However, the highest SAT score was my math score. Another weakness I had at times throughout my years of high school was investing too much time socializing As a result, I would not spend enough time doing homework, which affected my test scores causing my grades to be lower than what I preferred. Looking back, I didn't take my classes seriously because I wasn't truly considering going to college until my junior year. Then I knew that I had to get the best grades during my last two years. That year I ended with a C in Pre-Calculus but if I had not reached out to my teachers because I felt lost in the class, stayed after school for one-one-one help, and reached out to friends that had a better understanding of the material, I probably would have failed the class. In college, I plan on strengthening my academic performance by continuing to focus and put effort into my classes, balance classes with my social life, be motivated and
I am currently enrolled in a second semester of this program, so I am planning to finish it successfully.
One of my highest scores was physical wellness. This is because being physically fit is very important to me. Since 6th grade I have always been very involved in sports. Through middle school I played football, cross country, track, and was captain of the wrestling team. Because of this physical fitness is deeply important to me. I avoid anything that can possibly hinder my physical abilities like drugs and smoking. I eat well a majority of the time and am currently on my school’s raider team which has kept me very physically fit.
1. In Manhattan Review, I got the best tips in SAT during training whose usefulness resulted in my score of 2350. I'm thankful to my parents, I enrolled into the right institute.
1.) My goal for the October TW #2 was a 7 and I arrived at this score goal by taking into consideration the scores on my previous timed writes and how much time and effort I think I will put into the preparation process. Personally, it helps my writing process and time management during the timed write to become more efficient when I plan out what I will write about to a degree.
Item 4, the highest scoring item (4.85) is phrased as: Ensure that my baby is properly latched on for the whole feeding. This attempts to measure the mother’s belief in her ability to correctly position her baby during feedings. Good positioning will facilitate a proper latching of the baby into the mother’s breast. In fact, latching on is actually the most important part of successful breastfeeding. If the baby is not properly latched on to the breast, the feedings could be painful (APA, 2012).
Many students and parents may believe that investing a lot of time, money, and energy in preparation for the SAT helps students get accepted into their dream colleges, thus leading to a successful career. Despite that belief, “students may spend hundreds of dollars and countless hours on test prep and take the SAT multiple times, and still not receive a score that reflects their achievement in school (Vitale).” To refute the notion that the SAT leading students into a successful career, Professor Harvey Gilmore inputs his personal experience with the SAT. Gilmore compared his SAT scores to how they have affected him in the long run. He received a “830 out of 1600” on the SAT, which is equivalent to a “1245 out of a maximum score of 2400 today
With changes in the formatting of the SATs starting next September, preparation is more vital than ever. The revised SATs, in addition to encompassing different time constraints than the current ones, will require a greater and more sophisticated breadth of critical (or “evidence based”) reading and comprehension skills. They will also implement a difference in “score reporting” protocol. This means a more profound emphasis on essays, composite scores, and area scores (which are a kind of grading scale based on each category featured).
4. What did you learn about yourself from the Assessment? (What were your major strengths and weaknesses?
My strengths are my self-confidence, determination, organization, and ability to prioritize. Balancing an overloaded school schedule, upwards of 24 credits in a semester, maintaining excellent grades, raising a toddler, and volunteering are demonstrative of my greater fortes. In terms of weaknesses, public speaking has always been difficult for me, as well as networking. I have branched outside of my comfort zone, engaged in volunteer opportunities, student organizations, and clubs as an effort to improve upon this.
1) After reviewing my essays, it appears that my strengths come from all over the place depending on the type of essay. On the most recent DBQ, my strengths came from the thesis, my strong development of an argument, and the fact that I used all the documents. On the long question essay, my strengths come from my thesis, my development of an argument and the synthesis of a connection. I pretty much got the minimalist points for the easier things but I made the easy things clear and concise which will get me the basic points on the AP exam.
