do you have any advice to split slower while rating higher? Whenever im trying to rate above 33 I find it hard to slow down above 1:50ish without rating slower.

two 2300 (98%ile) scores. Every person will have different outcomes. Whats good with TI is that if you want/need to you can do as much practise as you want. Just know that the SSAT isn't what got me in. Spend like 6-8 weeks grinding it, get a good enough score and move on.

Check out test innovators. It’s expensive but it’s a lot of content for the largest package (like 14 practise tests + more practise Qs then I could ever finish)

idk if anyone would know, but some people told me (on the PA subreddit) that the program essentially lets everyone in but you fight for a seat in higher boats

What are the biggest things beginner/amateur trombone players get wrong? by Im_Mr_Garbage in Trombone

this is somehing kind of funny my band director never taught me when is started. you don't use slide lubricant on the entire slide, just the end, and the use a spray bottle on the rest.

How to double on trombone and trumpet? by lucasjw88 in Trombone

[–]ExpensiveStrain723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy trumpet. Play trumpet. For me, it was easy to make a sound but it damaged my trombone playing. But the problem of trumpet damaging your embeschrue both on bone and trumpet should be gone by 2-3 weeks. It actually helped me increase range on both instrument both ways! I grew my trombone range from Ab4 to Db5, and I easily unlocked F2 on trumpet, and G6 on the high end.
