Passage reading

<p>I don't comprehend some words in the passages.....-____-</p>

<p>Why is the SAT questioning my intelligence.... I've never felt so hopeless in my life.</p>

<p>Do you not understand the words just when you first read the passage, or do you continue not to understand them after you have looked them up in the dictionary?</p>

<p>How much do you read, outside of what's assigned for your classes? What kinds of things? What (if anything) do you enjoy reading?</p>

<p>I've known people who've felt very hopeless about the SATs. It makes me angry that people are put in situations where ridiculous ideas about success and failure are treated as normal. I don't know you, obviously, and I have no idea whether or not you are someone I would think was intelligent, but I know this: if you told me your SAT scores right now, it wouldn't make me any more capable of figuring out whether or not you are intelligent.</p>

<p>lmao what a hypocrite...i was asking for help the other day and you u said to me "OMFG, dude. Go read a book you dunce. No, actually go read 10 books. Memorize over five thousand words then come back to this forum to update everyone with your pointless issues." and now you make one?</p>

<p>I'll give you the same advise you gave me...Why not use your timing studying vocabs instead of coming on this forum and complain. An average person could memorize a lot of words in an hour. Go utilize your time wisely, to the best of your benefit than indulging yourself to this website. Remember, your score will not improve if you're on this site.</p>

<p>^^ gl</p>

<p>^somewhat harsh, but i concur.
Go study. Just telling us you dont "comprehend" won't help us help you. Answer nontraditional questions and then come back if you still have trouble.</p>

<p>I guess people sometimes just need emotional relief, regardless if they've found the right way to do so. :p</p>

<p>@voodoo santa, good one xD</p>

<p>"Why is the SAT questioning my intelligence.... I've never felt so hopeless in my life."</p>

<p>What would normal person do when they don't understand a word in a passage? They would look it up. Not complain to others. There is an obvious fix, but apparently all you want is for us to say something along the lines of "Don't worry, the test is hard for everyone" or "I am like that too."</p>

<p>And to answer your question, I do not think that the SAT is questioning your intelligence at all, because for it to do that, you must possess at least some intelligence. Maybe its questioning your lack there of?</p>

<p>khoitrinh, why are you so harsh?</p>

<p>tough love = success. The Asian equation.</p>

<p>^LOL I agree with lolilaughed.</p>

<p>Anyway, don't get so down on yourself, insomniac. Keep pushing.</p>

<p>Push harder.</p>

<p>and go deeper.</p>

<p>Are you thinking what i'm thinking?</p>

<p>^that's what she said.</p>

<p>I'm not being harsh. I am just stating facts. Maybe you should have a look at his other thread where he admits to just simply wanting people to encourage and push him on.</p>

<p>People like this annoy the crap out of me. Just get on with your life. No one cares. This is a college discussion forum, not a "I suck at life, help plox" forum. If he has a legitimate question of is in need of hep or advice, I woiuld be glad to help, but he doesn't. He just wants attention.</p>

<p>"he admits to just simply wanting people to encourage and push him on"</p>

<p>Thats wrong man. Really, really wrong.</p>

<p>"I was expecting someone to encourage me.. Someone to raise my despondant attitude. Big boys don't cry." -insomniac_01</p>

<p>For some reason, I think he is crying right now.</p>

<p>khoitrinh: "He just wants attention."
So you gave him :p</p>

<p>I like making people happy, if you haven't read any of my other posts.</p>
