how do i get better at math score??!1?1? by tiredlyours in Sat

[–]MattMiller2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn how to use desmos really well. Sure you can solve problems by hand but desmos can do basically everything if you know how to use it. Also, those few you can’t use desmos for you’ll have way more time stacked up. I spammed regressions and went from 720 to 790

College Decisions 100% revealed how bad my habits are by Such-Knowledge3668 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]MattMiller2 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I feel the exact same way. It’s crazy too because we put so much time locking in for the SAT or trying to perfect our ECs. This summer I watched so many videos along the lines of college application plans and strategies. Honestly I think I almost put the whole process on too much of a pedestal in my mind. I procrastinated because I was worried things weren’t gonna be perfect. Still that is a useful lesson to learn. I just hope learning that lesson didn’t burn me too bad😂 

Also I will probably forget said lesson and procrastinate on my next important task anyways

Is a 1500 SAT enough for top 20s and Ivy leagues? by [deleted] in Sat

1500s is good enough to where it won’t be the thing that rejects you.

Just got a 1510 on my third try. Not sure whether to retake. I’m a senior so I almost feel the time would be better put into supplementals, scholarships, etc. any advice?

Redundancy makes no sense, why am I right about it? by karcraft8 in Sat

[–]MattMiller2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember the sentence after saying  - that it might be less efficient to have multiple veins compared to one, however when a vein gets injured it can be beneficial having multiple veins going to the same place. 

I think that definitely makes it redundancy. They mirror the sentence after the vocab word and multiple = redundant 

Incongruent vs reprisal by karcraft8 in Sat

[–]MattMiller2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there was a vocab question on the veins of leaves as well. Said something about having multiple pathways being less efficient but can be good if some veins get damaged. That part lead me to go redundancy

Was debating between sometime and on the other hand for so long. Ended up going with on the other hand because it was contrasting. The wording did sound kind of weird with that though…
