1
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:07,033
- Hi, everyone.

2
00:00:07,033 --> 00:00:08,720
Sal Khan here from Khan Academy.

3
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:09,960
I just wanted to welcome you

4
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:13,940
to National SAT Practice Test Day.

5
00:00:13,940 --> 00:00:16,160
Now, a lot of you probably are putting

6
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:17,690
a lot of weight into the Sat.

7
00:00:17,690 --> 00:00:21,560
It is an input into the
college admissions process,

8
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,270
but the one thing I wanna
emphasize is more important

9
00:00:24,270 --> 00:00:28,400
than the SAT or your score is your ability

10
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:30,840
to practice, your ability
to develop yourself

11
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,200
and how college ready you can be.

12
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,050
And one thing that I've seen
in my life over and over again,

13
00:00:36,050 --> 00:00:38,050
and I've seen in many other people's lives

14
00:00:38,050 --> 00:00:40,610
is the more that you focus on the process

15
00:00:40,610 --> 00:00:42,230
versus the outcome.

16
00:00:42,230 --> 00:00:44,380
One, the more enjoyable it will be,

17
00:00:44,380 --> 00:00:46,800
but also you'll probably
get a better outcome.

18
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,400
So as you go into National
SAT Practice Test Day,

19
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,440
and eventually as you
go into the real SAT,

20
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,560
or really if you go into
anything in your life

21
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,580
that might feel important,
focus on the process

22
00:00:58,580 --> 00:01:01,400
and when you do so you'll
get into kind of a Zen Mode

23
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,120
and it's really starts
to get a little bit fun.

24
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,460
So take that mindset into the SAT,

25
00:01:06,460 --> 00:01:09,250
put your best effort, get into the flow,

26
00:01:09,250 --> 00:01:14,250
get into that zone if you
will, and do the best you can,

27
00:01:14,420 --> 00:01:17,260
but don't get fixated
on what the outcome is.

28
00:01:17,260 --> 00:01:20,320
So with that said, let's get started.

29
00:01:20,320 --> 00:01:21,340
- Thanks Sal.

30
00:01:21,340 --> 00:01:22,173
Hi, everyone.

31
00:01:22,173 --> 00:01:23,630
I'm Lauren from Khan Academy.

32
00:01:23,630 --> 00:01:25,260
Before we get to the practice test,

33
00:01:25,260 --> 00:01:27,330
I want us to note that we're
giving away some prizes

34
00:01:27,330 --> 00:01:29,000
for our live attendees today.

35
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:30,730
So be sure to check
out the notes on screen

36
00:01:30,730 --> 00:01:32,710
and follow the instructions to enter.

37
00:01:32,710 --> 00:01:35,810
We're giving away five, one
hour SATs tutoring sessions

38
00:01:35,810 --> 00:01:38,410
with our SAT practice content expert.

39
00:01:38,410 --> 00:01:42,720
And we're also giving your
way 10 $25 Amazon gift cards.

40
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:44,390
Okay everyone, let's get started

41
00:01:44,390 --> 00:01:46,320
on your full full-length practice test.

42
00:01:46,320 --> 00:01:48,630
The first step is to
log into your official

43
00:01:48,630 --> 00:01:50,970
SAT practice account on Khan Academy.

44
00:01:50,970 --> 00:01:55,970
So go to khanacademy.org/sat
and sign into your account.

45
00:01:56,060 --> 00:01:58,560
If you don't have an account,
you can create one for free

46
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,268
in just a couple of minutes.

47
00:02:00,268 --> 00:02:01,780
I'm already signed in.

48
00:02:01,780 --> 00:02:04,100
So I'm going to click, let's go.

49
00:02:04,100 --> 00:02:05,530
And once you're logged in,

50
00:02:05,530 --> 00:02:09,300
you can go ahead and click on
Full Tests at the top here.

51
00:02:09,300 --> 00:02:10,260
Today we're recommending

52
00:02:10,260 --> 00:02:12,730
that you take practice test number 10,

53
00:02:12,730 --> 00:02:14,180
which is the first test you'll see

54
00:02:14,180 --> 00:02:15,920
after you click on Full Tests.

55
00:02:15,920 --> 00:02:18,360
Practice tests number 10
is a newest practice test

56
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:19,330
on our site.

57
00:02:19,330 --> 00:02:21,430
And like most of our practice tests,

58
00:02:21,430 --> 00:02:24,630
it was previously given
as a real SAT exam.

59
00:02:24,630 --> 00:02:26,770
So it'll give you a great
idea of what to expect

60
00:02:26,770 --> 00:02:28,850
when you take the SAT in a few weeks.

61
00:02:28,850 --> 00:02:31,330
If you've already taken
practice tests number 10,

62
00:02:31,330 --> 00:02:33,280
you can choose one of
these other practice tests

63
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,700
to take that you haven't taken before.

64
00:02:35,700 --> 00:02:37,500
Before we start the practice tests,

65
00:02:37,500 --> 00:02:38,560
I want you to take a minute

66
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,460
and make sure you have
everything you need.

67
00:02:40,460 --> 00:02:43,050
So you should have a
pen or a pencil nearby

68
00:02:43,050 --> 00:02:44,690
along with some scratch paper,

69
00:02:44,690 --> 00:02:45,523
so you can make notes

70
00:02:45,523 --> 00:02:47,330
as you work through your math problems.

71
00:02:47,330 --> 00:02:49,450
You also wanna have an approved calculator

72
00:02:49,450 --> 00:02:51,090
for the final math sections,

73
00:02:51,090 --> 00:02:53,820
and you can go to
collegeboard.com to learn about

74
00:02:53,820 --> 00:02:56,740
what calculators are
approved for the test.

75
00:02:56,740 --> 00:02:58,500
Generally, most graphing calculators,

76
00:02:58,500 --> 00:03:00,220
all scientific calculators

77
00:03:00,220 --> 00:03:02,610
and all four-function
calculators are approved.

78
00:03:02,610 --> 00:03:04,550
So whatever calculator you have today,

79
00:03:04,550 --> 00:03:07,090
that will be just fine
for the practice test.

80
00:03:07,090 --> 00:03:08,680
Another thing important thing to do

81
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,350
is eliminate as many
distractions as possible.

82
00:03:11,350 --> 00:03:15,120
So make sure your phone is
off or set to Do Not Disturb

83
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,030
and make sure you're in a
quiet, comfortable space

84
00:03:17,030 --> 00:03:19,460
where you can really focus
on your practice tests.

85
00:03:19,460 --> 00:03:22,250
Also, if you're using a laptop,
make sure it's plugged in

86
00:03:22,250 --> 00:03:24,900
so that you don't have to
worry about the battery dying.

87
00:03:24,900 --> 00:03:26,900
Next, let's take a minute to get over

88
00:03:26,900 --> 00:03:28,260
the structure of the test.

89
00:03:28,260 --> 00:03:30,190
So you know what to expect.

90
00:03:30,190 --> 00:03:33,950
The first section is reading
and it is 65 minutes long.

91
00:03:33,950 --> 00:03:36,150
Then we'll take a 10-minute break.

92
00:03:36,150 --> 00:03:38,420
The next section is writing and language

93
00:03:38,420 --> 00:03:40,540
and it is 35 minutes long.

94
00:03:40,540 --> 00:03:42,900
Right after that section,
we'll move into the math,

95
00:03:42,900 --> 00:03:46,540
no calculator section,
which is 25 minutes long.

96
00:03:46,540 --> 00:03:48,830
Then we'll take a five-minute break.

97
00:03:48,830 --> 00:03:50,870
Then you'll return for the final section,

98
00:03:50,870 --> 00:03:52,970
which is the math with calculator section,

99
00:03:52,970 --> 00:03:54,453
which is 55 minutes long.

100
00:03:55,470 --> 00:03:58,520
We won't be adding in the
optional essay section today,

101
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,480
but you can practice the
essay on Khan Academy

102
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,290
after the practice test, if you'd like to.

103
00:04:03,290 --> 00:04:06,080
So we'll have a timer running
on the screen for each section

104
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,440
that you can refer to.

105
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,530
And just like when you take the real SAT,

106
00:04:09,530 --> 00:04:11,650
you'll hear me announce when
we reached the halfway point

107
00:04:11,650 --> 00:04:14,630
of each section, and when you
have five minutes remaining.

108
00:04:14,630 --> 00:04:16,860
I know it's a big commitment
to take a three-hour test

109
00:04:16,860 --> 00:04:19,270
on a Saturday, but going
through the full test

110
00:04:19,270 --> 00:04:21,450
in one sitting is really
a great way to prepare

111
00:04:21,450 --> 00:04:22,910
for the test experience.

112
00:04:22,910 --> 00:04:25,090
So I applaud all of you
for being here today

113
00:04:25,090 --> 00:04:26,460
and taking the time.

114
00:04:26,460 --> 00:04:28,810
So as you're getting
ready to start the test,

115
00:04:28,810 --> 00:04:30,360
stop (indistinct) a minute and think about

116
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,290
what your goal is on
the practice test today.

117
00:04:33,290 --> 00:04:36,220
Maybe you wanna improve your
pacing in a certain section,

118
00:04:36,220 --> 00:04:38,320
or maybe there's a certain benchmark score

119
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:39,680
you're hoping to improve,

120
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,080
or maybe you just wanna get a sense

121
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:42,730
of what the full test is like.

122
00:04:42,730 --> 00:04:45,020
Whatever your goal is
just take a quick minute

123
00:04:45,020 --> 00:04:46,920
and write it down on your scratch paper

124
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,290
and we'll revisit it at the end.

125
00:04:49,290 --> 00:04:51,210
All right, so we're ready.

126
00:04:51,210 --> 00:04:53,330
So let's everyone take a deep breath,

127
00:04:53,330 --> 00:04:55,410
relax and let's get started.

128
00:04:55,410 --> 00:04:56,260
Please begin now.

129
00:24:59,607 --> 00:25:02,430
You have 35 minutes
remaining in this section.

130
00:35:00,340 --> 00:35:02,870

01:10:06,660 --> 01:10:09,200
Congratulations on completing
the reading section.

136
01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:11,180
Now it's time for your 10 minute break.

137
01:10:11,180 --> 01:10:13,030
So grab a snack, use the restroom,

138
01:10:13,030 --> 01:10:14,420
get up and stretch for a bit.

139
01:10:14,420 --> 01:10:16,120
And we'll see you back here in 10.

140
01:20:25,450 --> 01:20:27,450
All right, everyone break is over.

141
01:20:27,450 --> 01:20:29,670
So it's time to get back to your computers

142
01:20:29,670 --> 01:20:31,410
and get ready for section two.

143
01:20:31,410 --> 01:20:32,310
Let's get started.

144
01:20:33,330 --> 01:20:35,847
Please begin the writing
and language section now.

145
01:40:33,330 --> 01:40:36,687

01:55:51,930 --> 01:55:55,017
Please begin the math, no
calculator section now.

149
02:05:51,257 --> 02:05:54,160
You have 15 minutes
remaining in this section.

02:20:52,120 --> 02:20:53,853
Stop work on this section.

152
02:20:59,040 --> 02:20:59,950
Great job.

153
02:20:59,950 --> 02:21:02,540
You've completed three
out of four sections.

154
02:21:02,540 --> 02:21:04,980
Now it's time for your five minute break.

155
02:21:04,980 --> 02:21:06,900
Be sure to stand up and walk around

156
02:21:06,900 --> 02:21:08,190
and get a drink of water.

157
02:21:08,190 --> 02:21:09,540
You're in the home stretch.

158
02:21:09,540 --> 02:21:11,540
We'll see you back here in five minutes.

159
02:26:19,297 --> 02:26:20,620
All right, everyone,

160
02:26:20,620 --> 02:26:23,500
time to get back to your
computers for the final section,

161
02:26:23,500 --> 02:26:26,320
get your calculator ready
and let's get started.

162
02:26:26,320 --> 02:26:28,853
Please begin the math
calculator section now.

163
02:46:31,347 --> 02:46:34,180
You have 35 minutes
remaining in this section.

164
02:56:32,090 --> 02:56:34,620
You have 25 minutes
remaining in this section.

165
03:01:32,177 --> 03:01:34,850
You have 20 minutes
remaining in this section.

166
03:06:32,750 --> 03:06:35,440
You have 15 minutes
remaining in this section.

167
03:16:33,167 --> 03:16:35,900
You have five minutes
remaining in this section.

168
03:21:34,293 --> 03:21:35,993
Stop work on this section.

169
03:21:39,270 --> 03:21:40,740
Congratulations, everyone.

170
03:21:40,740 --> 03:21:43,350
You just completed a
full-length practice test.

171
03:21:43,350 --> 03:21:45,530
Now I know you're
probably tired right now.

172
03:21:45,530 --> 03:21:48,060
So after you've had some
time to rest and relax,

173
03:21:48,060 --> 03:21:49,660
I highly encourage you
to come visit the test

174
03:21:49,660 --> 03:21:50,690
that you just took

175
03:21:50,690 --> 03:21:52,140
so that you can go over
what you've got right,

176
03:21:52,140 --> 03:21:55,300
and what you missed, and you
can see what you need to study.

177
03:21:55,300 --> 03:21:58,010
And as we wrap up this Practice Test Day

178
03:21:58,010 --> 03:21:59,940
I want you to think back
to that goal you wrote down

179
03:21:59,940 --> 03:22:01,220
when we first started.

180
03:22:01,220 --> 03:22:03,010
Do you think you achieved that goal?

181
03:22:03,010 --> 03:22:04,500
Why or why not?

182
03:22:04,500 --> 03:22:06,890
Just take a few quick
moments to reflect on that

183
03:22:06,890 --> 03:22:09,250
and consider how this might
affect your future plans

184
03:22:09,250 --> 03:22:10,500
as you study for the SAT.

185
03:22:14,440 --> 03:22:17,000
