Am i doing it correctly?xiggi method?

<p>After i do a section, i review every question even if i got it correct. I have the BB v2. Do i just read through every single explanation on the website, even the ones explaining why its incorrect? or just the correct choices and the explanation for it? or what?</p>

<p>Do whatever works for you. If reading the explanations for all of the answer choices does not help you, there is no need to continue to do so.</p>

<p>the fact is that i don’t know if it helps me or not lol…</p>

<p>Well, there is no general right or wrong answer here. You should be able to tell whether you feel that reading all the choices’ explanations is adding to your knowledge.</p>

<p>Perhaps the xiggi method is not your best bet if you are already having doubts. I would highly recommend you check out this spectacular SAT guide that was recently created. You’ll learn everything you need to tackle the critical reading section, and more!</p>

<p>well the thing is that i don’t know if i am APPLYING or even DOING the xiggi method correctly.</p>

<p>I guess the only way to know if you are doing it correctly is if your practice test scores are increasing at a satisfactory rate.</p>

<p>can someone preferably xiggi, explain how the method works and the exact details of it? i may want to replicate that method first and modify to make my ends meet</p>

<p>This is what I suggested eons ago.</p>

<p>The idea behind checking the correct answers is to make sure that the tester truly understands the problem and that the correct answer was not a fluke or the result of lucky guessing. The reality that this step should be rather short because most testers know how they answered the question. The benefit derived is the gain in confidence: being SURE that you know the correct answer and KNOWING that you will solve it the next time you see a similar problem increase your confidence. With an increased confidence, you’ll be able to shave the response time. </p>

<p>In so many words, being able to answer the easy and medium questions accurately, confidently, and without waste of time is one of the keys to a higher score. While one might not see immediate results, the benefits of analyzing his or her own performance in depth will soon become apparent over time. It is also good to remember as one becomes proficient, the time to check the answers will diminish.</p>

<p>In addition, this is also why students should not use non-TCB tests. The so called synthetic tests cannot reproduce the patterns developed by TCB and are often poorly written and marred by errors. With the number of tests available, there are no valid reasons to spend any time on that type of tests, and plenty of reasons to avoid them at all costs. </p>

<p>Best of luck</p>

<p>Thanks!!! Now when you mean review, for lets say a problem that you got correctly, should you go and read the explanations for why the other choices are wrong on the BB online site?or should you be fine just knowing WHY you got it correct.</p>

<p>YOW, I don’t think it is necessary to review the wrong answers listed by TCB when you have the correct answer. Reviewing the right answer is mostly to reassure yourself WHY you got it right and, perhaps, find a quicker or more elegant way to solve the problem. </p>

<p>This said, TCB is not known to suggest the shortest and best answers. This is why a forum such as CC is a great resource. You should not hesitate to post questions and ask for the best approach to the problems.</p>

<p>Many thanks :)!!!</p>
