if i get more than 1500. i am going to give this guy a kiss. but mike 1 recommendation i know you need to make money and stuff but as some one from 3rd world country i really cant pay for the member content and i felt like i am mising out on alot, so please mike when ever you can dont hold back too much from people who cant pay

[@miladmirgv2259]

me too

[@r22gamer54]

I live in america but still dont pay for tutoring. Barely anyone does, dont worry cause your not missing out! Tutoring costs like $100/hour where I live and...yeah im not gonna do that.

[@alandarrin]

How was it??

Thanks for your help these last few months hopefully my goal score comes to fruition 🙏

[@SetteleTutoring]

Me too! I hope the test went well!

[@taddersauce3672]

This is such a great video man. I was absolutely blindsided by a lot of these questions, but you explained them so thoroughly I'll make sure not to make such silly mistakes on the SAT tmrw. Thank you!!!

[@cozyhomeharmony]

Very useful. We can see how much effort you put into these videos. Thank you so much

[@SetteleTutoring]

That’s so nice of you! I definitely try my best to convey a lot of information in an understandable way.

taking the SAT in an hour from now. thanks for the final call on traps!

[@adelinebrusso2100]

Just took October DSAT. Wow, I just want to thank you Mike for helping me with the English section. I drank coffee before the test (never have done that) and through analyzing strong words and key phrases I somehow managed to finish m1 and m2 without having to guess for 5 unanswered questions at the end of modules! On math, I did not do as good as I liked cuz it felt really hard but after talking to some students I know I at least made the hard module. I’m feeling really conflicted right now and I just hope that I got a good score and all my studying wasn’t for nothing 😅

[@SetteleTutoring]

Thanks for the feedback! I’m so glad I could help with all of it. Any recommendations for math questions I should be making for the next group of testers? I feel like the math is always hard because the end is unpredictable. We know the topics are consistent, but there are infinite ways they can put them together, so we’re always trying to untwist what we get. I’m sure you did great, though! Harder modules means we can get more wrong and not lose as many points.

[@cookie14467]

@@SetteleTutoring There are always questions on algebra and multiple constants, could you try to make a video on that sometime soon? Those are easily the toughest problems on the test.

[@SetteleTutoring]

@@cookie14467 I think you’re talking about questions like these. Most of them are for paid channel members, but there’s one free video in the playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLlvPF6rDVN_vNGDN_gLi1GJAbHI2JE-r9

Just stick to the plan! Use the strategies, even when you’re nervous and don’t think they’ll work. You’re going to do great! Good luck!

Thanks!

[@savageboss4109]

I can safely say none of this came on the the test this August it felt too easy of a test. So either I studied everything(which I didnt) or the test was no made challenging those time😭👍

[@SetteleTutoring]

I bet you did great! You might have been using strategies that made a lot of the traps go away. That’s the point of the strategies!

[@haiyen-laura365]

This video is helpful

[@AaryanPandeya]

Hey in 3 of RNw you choose D but can't the answer be C too cuz SUCH AS can act as Non essential transition.14:18

[@SetteleTutoring]

No. “Such as” leads into a clause with examples. It would make no sense to remove it entirely from the sentence but leave the list it’s introducing.

[@lol-bc5sl]

My SAT is in 2 hours guys, GOODLUCK EVERYONE

[@Didi_uuu]

August 24 guyss good luck

[@AhmadMustafa-l2i]

Dear settele your youtube channel is the best but i think the only problem is there are so many videos there. if you delete videos of old format and use its contents in new format for your new videos it will be good for everybody. pleasssse think about it.

[@SetteleTutoring]

Yeah, this is a good idea. I don’t want to delete them because some of the old test questions are helpful if you run out of digital SAT practice tests, but I can make them unlisted, I think. Where are you running into the old questions? Do they show up as recommended?

[@AhmadMustafa-l2i]

@@SetteleTutoring no my dear. they don't show up as recommended but there are two reasons which i think you should delete them first you could refine their content and use their content in new videos for digital sat and second when first time someone visit your channel and see there are tons of videos they don't want to use your channel cause they think they couldn't find their way through as i thought first and just leave your channel. that is also i think the reason that you don't have lots of subscribers though you are the best while some other channels have more subscribers cause they just look good. thanks

[@homestudywastaken]

can you tell me the logic of the equation and how we can find it without testing the equations question 16:08

[@OverclockingCowboy]

120 + 70 (x - 3) 120 + 70x - 210 70x - 90

[@SetteleTutoring]

You really don’t find the equation without testing. That’s the point! Your logic is likely to be wrong, so it’s best to never go down that path. If the equation fits the points, that’s all that matters. There is no deeper logic beyond that.

[@YvetteAkosuahNNimo]

Would you say NEGATIVE IN OPTION C IS ALSO A TRAP

[@SetteleTutoring]

In question 6? But C was the answer.

[@yenvo2519]

How to review questions more effectively and faster ? I have watched your strategy playlist and done many practice questions from bluebook and Question bank but I don’t find myself improving much. When I watch u explain, it seems easy. But when I do it on my own, I still get lost in what I’m reading and fall for re-reading ( just in some few cases dumb summary / connotation help). It wastes my time and my energy. The more I read, I more discouraged I become. I don’t know what I should do now? My exam is in October , im kinda panicking. My score is 600-650, is it possible for me to get 700+ in English section?

[@SetteleTutoring]

Yes, 700+ is possible. You need to just keep chipping away, question by question. Improving the Reading score can be frustrating and slow. It takes a very conscious effort to try actually reading differently. Every vocabulary word you don’t know is another potential loss of points, so you can work to minimize that by memorizing new words. The passages are tough because there are so many words, and the sentences on the hard ones can be long and confusing, but I make it look easy because I have learned when to pay attention to the passages. I can read in such a way that only the very important Strong Words jump out. Most of what I read is going in one ear and out the other, but when I see a phrase that matters, it jumps off the page for me. Dumb Summaries force us to trim out details and think about the words that truly matter. When that fails, the choices have their own Strong Words that you can train yourself to notice. Just keep practicing with that goal in mind.

[@J77H]

I got them all true except for question #2 , man i am not getting its idea😢😢😢

[@SetteleTutoring]

I hope it made sense on the real test! The good news is that there’s nothing to get. They tell us a point, plug it into the equations. Don’t worry about how the equation got built. It’s not worth the mental energy.

[@miladmirgv2259]

i love ur vudeos

[@lukast2784]

why did #2 get me lol

[@SetteleTutoring]

Because you didn’t Plug Points Into Equations!

[@Pixie12pac]

15:32 where tf he get 210 from

[@PsychoOcto]

Simplify the formula 3(x-70)+120, and we get 3x-210+120

[@SetteleTutoring]

I plugged in 3 for x. Plug Points Into Equations!

[@helena-gz4bh]

got ads every two minutes very distracting

[@Ayush-y7h]

i am having difficulties to understand why 16:04 D is wrong

[@SetteleTutoring]

You’re over-thinking it. Plug the point (3, 120) into the equation. It produces an invalid result: 120=330. You’re getting tricked into thinking that 120 is a y-intercept. It’s not. Y-intercepts are where x=0, but that’s not the case with that point.

[@Ayush-y7h]

@@SetteleTutoring Thank u for your explanation , i got it :)
