Rocketcat’s TEN SHORT QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR APTITUDE AND HOW YOU DESCRIBE YOURSELF
By Judiethcarol&RocketcatApril2010c.
Remember that every question you answer correctly gives you another point—and the same one point. When you encounter a Q&A like the April 10 fill in the blank on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), notice what the design of the question is asking from you.
How does this SAT question measure your aptitude for scholarship?
Imagine for a moment: If you were describing your personal ability to succeed in college, what words would you use to describe that ability?
Do you notice clues? Is the connotation of a word a major clue to answer the question?
Do you ‘connect the dots’ across the content areas to see a complete picture?
Do you use what you know to figure out what you do not know?
Do you often notice that you know more than you realized before you were asked a certain question?
Are you aware of an ability to use clues and strategies?
Do you ever feel that you are using an Algebra style way to answer a language arts question—by considering the unknown and the known to figure out the answer?
Can you describe your greatest strengths to yourself?
Do you guess most of the time when you are taking standardized tests, or do you often feel confident that you know the way to find the answer?
