If you study well, you will do well on the sat, if you don’t study you will do bad on it. If you study well in college, you will do well in college, if not, you will do bad. Huge correlation there. It really is only about test taking. The SAT is not hard enough to test how smart you are, it’s only there to test how hard you can study for a test, which is very important in college in determining your success. You study in college, you pass, if not, you will fail. That is where the correlation comes from.

@@First-bt6rq I got 1570. Don't need to cope. The point is that the SAT actually measures something, it's not useless

a perfect score on the sat just tells someone they know elementary algebra and how to use a colon

@@dabossbabie3605 lmao it may measure something for americans because of how fucked our education system is. anyone who's educated themselves outside the school system understands how much they've missed. the SAT tests absolutely nothing besides rudimentary basics. what you can learn from taking standardized tests is scant. in order to learn much of what the SAT tests, students often overpay because (again) schools seldom teach anything substantive. hence, there is a correlation between socioeconomic background and SAT scores (same goes with the former variable and college success).

pre calculas

You're right! I'm very lucky to have my family. Doesn't mean others can't still be successful.

1. Being naturally smart doesn't exist. Don't listen to people who say they're naturally smart and don't have to study. Not studying is a self-destructive habit. 2. SATs are a standard given to nearly every high school in the US. They only cost $60. This isn't a lot of money at all. A standard SAT will only take 2ish hours. It won't take much of your time. 3. Taking 10-30 mins a day to study your SAT is all you need. The SAT only goes to Algebra II, it's not exactly super hard math or reading concepts you need to wrap your head around. Being consistent is the hardest part, but for 10-30 mins a day it shouldn't be too hard. Don't study for hours and hours a day, you will burn yourself out.

@@spiritgaming1442 some people truly don't have to study or study as much. that makes them smarter.

@AH-fm2ex That's not true at all. Being smart in one thing doesn't make you smart is everything. A person that doesn't forward the habit of studying will hit a wall they can't get around. Simply because they're not smart in the subject. Just the same as sports, someone who's naturally gifted but never practices will hit a wall. Being intelligent isn't being naturally gifted. It's a the willingness to learn.

@@AH-fm2ex bro sat is about test taking not being smart

A 5th grade problem

@@agriya7930 I wouldn’t say 5th grade in the united states of america, but it’s not the hardest problem to do.

All of the math on the SAT is actually relatively simple. The difficulty is in the unique ways they propose problems, and the short time limit you have on sections.

Yeah, but can’t you logic that out? You can find the area of the rectangle and get it down to the last two answers, then see what the radiuses that the answers propose the circle has. Here, only J and K have -192, so it’s down to them. K proposes that the circle has a radius of 20, which is impossible since the rectangles length is longer than the radius and smaller than 20, so that just leaves J with a proposed radius of 10, which makes sense, right?

I love when people genuinely believe the SAT is meant to be a hard test. It's quite literally the bare minimum standard. What more do you expect?
