      No school has a pre-med major so search for schools that have a supportive premed environment with good advisors.

    • @brookifyd

      Either is totally fine!! Your teachers will have plenty of time if you ask in the fall, but if you want to email now that's fine too! All of us adults are rooting for you guys so don't worry about the timing too much! Just know they won't be able to submit until applications are open etc.

    If I want to submit my Oct. SATII scores, will I be able to meet the Nov 1 EA/ED deadline ???????
    I’ve asked students who did EA/ED last year about the last minute timing of this and they said I should be fine but I dunno....Logistically it doesn’t seem like it.

    • @SupertutorTV
      @SupertutorTV  5 років тому +1

      alice lange Depends on the school. Any school that accepts self reporting you are 100% fine. if a school requires the official score report a few schools maybe now are telling you October might not reach them in time. Michigan is that stand out here. For Michigan I would just try to get another score in in addition to your October score and they will focus on your best score. This is why I recommend making a spreadsheet and looking all this stuff up.

      Hey, I am going to take the SAT in a month and I’m freaking out. I keep zoning out in the middle of the practice exams and I never finished on time. The worst is in the SAT reading section. Would you please tell me how to fix this???
      Thanks and God bless.

      Read with a purpose. Drill one passage at a time and practice focusing. Watch our video on speed reading I talk about reading with a purpose.

      Email us at info@supertutortv.com if you don't get it. We'll also be sending a link to it tomorrow in our newsletter, which we subscribe you to if you entered your email. It may have landed in your bulk folder or been stopped by your filters or something. I did test it myself today and it worked (shrug) (technology).
