Question

Tristan · Accepted Answer

Absolutely, I was in the top 3% for English, but only in the top 38% in reading for the SAT. I have a hypothesis. I'm really good with words: I love to read, I have highly developed grammar, I excel with vocabulary, and I learn extremely fast. The only problem is that I suck at reading questions. This may be because my mind often understands many different possible solutions for a question, but fails to decide which is better. This means that I can see all four answers as a possibility, but, in my mind, they are all of the same importance because they all carry the same potential value. This makes answering a lot of those kind of questions difficult.

this was just a suggestion try to study more on the topics and if studying in boring to you try to make it fun like play a song that will not distract you but will help you get in the zone and help you study. this is just a suggestion I'm not sure if it will work. (I'm 8th grade)
