SAT, ACT, and any national registered exams study groups would be nice. Pls. I beg you.
@e.mccormick @Preetha @thomaster What do you think?
@AccessDenied @ganeshie8 @Zarkon What do you think about this...
I agree.
@e.mccormick @Preetha @ganeshie8 @thomaster You guys should consider this.
this is a good idea :)
I don't see why not :p. For those groups you can also probably download some practice tests and go over solutions and what not together, would be cool :)
Yeah, I also thought of challenge questions every two days would be nice. I could make use of Google forms to give everyone a chance at solving it too.
Sounds like you have it all planned out. Admins leggo!
In general, Academic Advice covers this. In a specific topic, the topics cover this. What I think is more needed is a question pool that is for topics like this. Then people could grab a question from the pool and learn about it.
Perhaps, however the idea is that students are studying for a single exam. Having a single group for an exam has been done already, so why not for others? There is a benefit as students can share related information of the exam as well as discuss tricks to tips with each other. As for SAT mathematics these usually are multiple was to solve a problem, asking in the mathematics group generally only you get help to find the answers, you do not find out if anyone has a more time efficient method.
well i think an SAT/ACT group would be great for people who need to study for these tests specifically. and since everyone needs to take the tests at least once in their lives, the group won't go dead. we'll have actual questions that were on the test so people can have a feel for what will be on it and what will be expected of them. usually a tutoring class like this can cost a whole lot of money. when we do it on here, it will be free and we'll be able to help a lot more people who might not have had the option before. and people who have taken the test before (like myself) can also help by telling newbies about the experience of taking the test
the math section has subtopics, so we can have the same thing for this group like SAT > Math or ACT > Science. i think that would work out just fine
And maybe an AP group could be added along with those two groups? :>
No, AP is overrated, no one like AP. Just means more homework >:(
@poopsiedoodle http://blog.openstudy.com/2014/09/03/ap-study-groups/ You are behind times. lel
how about you shut
:(
Now all we need is @Preetha to look at it. :)
Hey, we have AP subgroups. We can add SAT and ACT too. So like a SAT Math and ACT Math or ACT/SAT subgroup for Math? Not a generic study tips for SAT but specifically the math section of ACT and SAT?
opcode and i were thinking of having everyone first take a full-length practice test so people know what their weaknesses are. then after that, they can go in the subgroups to discuss the questions they got wrong with everyone else. then after a few weeks of studying, they can take another practice test to see if they improved
so let's say i took the practice test and my lowest score was in critical reading. so i'd go in the subgroup "critical reading" and post one of the questions i got wrong. that way other people can contribute what the answer is and why
SAT has Math, Critical Reading, and Writing ACT has Math, Science, English, Reading and Writing
A SAT Math, etc group would be fine, but I would prefer that there be just a general SAT and ACT group (something like the IIT study group), with subgroups of the topics it covers in it. Since most of the concepts of the SAT exam are repetitive, perhaps a person sees this users question so he decides to help out out after posting his question of writing, because he has done one like it.
if someone have SAT math question post that on math section withe the title "SAT question " and same with ACT if you have science ___>science section Critical Reading, and Writing --- > english and writing section then nobody have to face this problem like e_mccormick said
then they don't have to wait until 4, 8 and maybe 15 hour for someone to come and explain there question
