1
00:00:00,270 --> 00:00:08,430
The topic of today relates to practice habits and how to increase your score by having really good practice

2
00:00:08,430 --> 00:00:09,150
habits.

3
00:00:10,170 --> 00:00:12,600
I'm going to go ahead and start with a few quotes.

4
00:00:13,610 --> 00:00:23,390
The mark of a successful exam prep student is the mastery of not only knowing what to study, but how

5
00:00:23,390 --> 00:00:24,410
to study it.

6
00:00:25,100 --> 00:00:26,420
This is very true.

7
00:00:27,290 --> 00:00:35,390
A lot of students know what they have to study for the fall, but very few know how to actually study

8
00:00:35,390 --> 00:00:38,660
it, how to study for the exam.

9
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:43,220
And that's what we'll be that's what we will be talking about today.

10
00:00:44,740 --> 00:00:52,540
Second quote, The mark of a successful exam prep student is doing what you have to do so that you can

11
00:00:52,540 --> 00:00:53,980
do what you want to do.

12
00:00:54,940 --> 00:01:03,820
Not every aspect of studying is pleasant or nice or fun, but you do what you have to do so that you

13
00:01:03,820 --> 00:01:05,410
can do what you want to do.

14
00:01:05,950 --> 00:01:12,580
That doing what you want to do relates to your trying to go to a master's program, A university program

15
00:01:12,580 --> 00:01:13,810
for a bachelor's.

16
00:01:14,470 --> 00:01:24,940
Trying to be able to get a certificate to be a nurse or be a pharmacist in the United States.

17
00:01:25,060 --> 00:01:31,210
There are many reasons that people take this exam, but you do what you have to do so that you can do

18
00:01:31,210 --> 00:01:32,350
what you want to do.

19
00:01:33,820 --> 00:01:36,580
And then the final quote before we get started.

20
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:41,950
You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink.

21
00:01:42,820 --> 00:01:50,470
Who can tell me in the chatbox, who can tell me in the chat box how this quote relates to our topic

22
00:01:50,470 --> 00:01:51,190
for today.

23
00:01:51,220 --> 00:01:54,730
Now we're going to go over four areas of practice analysis.

24
00:01:55,590 --> 00:02:00,870
Listening practice habits, reading practice methods, writing practice routines and speaking practice

25
00:02:00,870 --> 00:02:01,920
mechanisms.

26
00:02:03,060 --> 00:02:06,990
And we're going to go through each one individually.

27
00:02:07,750 --> 00:02:14,950
And then at the end of the course, I'm going to go over just some general habits that apply to the

28
00:02:14,950 --> 00:02:16,690
entire exam overall.

29
00:02:19,410 --> 00:02:26,610
So let's go ahead and first get started with our how to practice for the exam and how this relates to

30
00:02:26,610 --> 00:02:28,590
the listening section of the exam.

31
00:02:33,140 --> 00:02:40,760
So in terms of some listening practice suggestions, we're going to go over keeping synonym and paraphrase

32
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:41,630
tables.

33
00:02:42,390 --> 00:02:44,790
Tracking and analyzing mistakes.

34
00:02:45,090 --> 00:02:50,610
Vocabulary new and misspelled and also transcript usage.

35
00:02:51,660 --> 00:02:59,280
If you are studying for the ILS exam and you want to do well at listening, you should be practicing

36
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,860
in these four areas.

37
00:03:02,530 --> 00:03:06,790
And these four areas really relate to skills.

38
00:03:07,390 --> 00:03:14,680
See, doing doing well on the exam is about mastering certain skills, certain English skills.

39
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:21,130
And the better you are at these skills, the greater chance you have of doing well on the exam.

40
00:03:21,640 --> 00:03:26,890
So first let's talk about synonyms and paraphrase tables.

41
00:03:27,110 --> 00:03:27,240
All right.

42
00:03:27,250 --> 00:03:28,870
That's what we're going to talk about first.

43
00:03:31,260 --> 00:03:33,060
So how do you do it?

44
00:03:33,090 --> 00:03:36,060
Well, first of all, you're going to do a listening practice.

45
00:03:36,790 --> 00:03:43,600
And if you're using the proper course strategy, you already have noted the question key words, because

46
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:49,300
for every listening question, it's about being able to know the question, key keywords, and then

47
00:03:49,300 --> 00:03:54,160
being able to hear those question key keywords properly and how they connect to the correct answer choice.

48
00:03:54,520 --> 00:04:01,720
However, after you have gone ahead and done a practice, what you do is you go through and you create

49
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:09,610
a table and you put the question keywords on the left side of the table and you put their synonym or

50
00:04:09,610 --> 00:04:12,700
their paraphrase match from the audio.

51
00:04:13,730 --> 00:04:18,620
And this is something that you do every time you do a listening practice.

52
00:04:18,980 --> 00:04:27,140
And the reason why you do it is you start really training your mind on being able to listen for synonyms

53
00:04:27,140 --> 00:04:28,640
and paraphrase matches.

54
00:04:29,330 --> 00:04:38,480
Because on the listening exam, the correct answer choice always connects to a synonym or a paraphrase

55
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,880
of something that was said in the question.

56
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:46,450
So you want to get better at this skill.

57
00:04:46,750 --> 00:04:48,580
And this is how you do it.

58
00:04:49,170 --> 00:04:49,390
Right.

59
00:04:49,390 --> 00:04:50,500
This is how you do it.

60
00:04:50,500 --> 00:04:53,110
And the more you do it, the better you get at it.

61
00:04:53,140 --> 00:04:59,020
Your brain starts automatically listening for the synonym or the paraphrase, and then you're going

62
00:04:59,020 --> 00:05:01,630
to be able to answer more, more, more things correctly.

63
00:05:02,490 --> 00:05:06,930
So that's the first practice habit when it comes to listening.

64
00:05:09,140 --> 00:05:12,710
Second, let's talk about tracking and analyzing mistakes.

65
00:05:13,540 --> 00:05:20,020
Well, if I ask most of you this question, and I said, Well, how many of you, after finishing a

66
00:05:20,020 --> 00:05:28,330
listening practice, do you create a chart of all of your mistakes, of how you're making mistakes?

67
00:05:28,780 --> 00:05:32,620
And the vast majority of students will say, No, I don't.

68
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:34,050
Right.

69
00:05:34,050 --> 00:05:38,310
I just take one test, look at what I got right or wrong.

70
00:05:38,310 --> 00:05:42,200
Then I jump to the next test and I do it, and I.

71
00:05:42,260 --> 00:05:44,820
And I keep making the same mistakes.

72
00:05:44,820 --> 00:05:46,050
I'm not improving.

73
00:05:46,740 --> 00:05:52,080
Well, you have to practice tracking and analyzing your mistakes.

74
00:05:52,810 --> 00:05:59,920
So, for example, again, for for every question that you answer incorrectly, you will put that question

75
00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:01,510
on the left side of a table.

76
00:06:02,110 --> 00:06:09,640
And then on the right side, you're going to analyze the mistake that you made.

77
00:06:10,450 --> 00:06:10,750
Right.

78
00:06:10,750 --> 00:06:12,250
Why did I make a mistake?

79
00:06:12,250 --> 00:06:14,470
How did I make a mistake in this area?

80
00:06:15,550 --> 00:06:19,240
And so if you're constantly tracking your mistakes.

81
00:06:20,300 --> 00:06:23,120
Then you're going to start being able to see patterns.

82
00:06:23,930 --> 00:06:25,460
You'll begin to be able to see.

83
00:06:25,460 --> 00:06:31,370
Well, you know, I made this the same mistake last time, right?

84
00:06:31,370 --> 00:06:36,920
I have to stop making this same mistake because every time I make this mistake, I'm choosing the wrong

85
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,060
answer choice.

86
00:06:39,510 --> 00:06:43,170
And again, this is not a lot of students.

87
00:06:43,170 --> 00:06:49,380
What they want to do is they just say, well, if I just keep taking test after test after test, I'm

88
00:06:49,380 --> 00:06:50,490
going to get better.

89
00:06:51,580 --> 00:06:57,670
And that's not and that's why some students say, why do I keep getting a six over and over and over

90
00:06:57,670 --> 00:06:58,330
again?

91
00:06:58,630 --> 00:07:04,690
Well, you have to be able to look at your mistakes, not just look at the mistake, but actually track

92
00:07:04,690 --> 00:07:05,890
your mistakes.

93
00:07:06,730 --> 00:07:14,650
Something else that a person can do also is they can also have a third column like here we have we have

94
00:07:14,650 --> 00:07:22,800
two columns, but also you can have a third column where you put down what was the correct answer and

95
00:07:22,830 --> 00:07:25,300
analyze why that was the correct answer.

96
00:07:25,750 --> 00:07:27,640
So that's actually really good to do.

97
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:32,500
Also, where you have instead of two columns like I have here, to have three columns.

98
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:34,440
The question.

99
00:07:34,770 --> 00:07:37,170
The mistake you made and why you made it.

100
00:07:37,230 --> 00:07:41,640
And then third column, the correct answer choice and why?

101
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,220
That's the correct answer choice in terms of what they said.

102
00:07:44,220 --> 00:07:49,920
Now, vocabulary is another great practice habit to have when it comes to listening.

103
00:07:50,250 --> 00:07:55,080
And when we're talking about vocabulary, we're talking about new and misspelled words.

104
00:07:55,800 --> 00:08:03,540
So every time you do a listening, right, you should put you should do two activities.

105
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:08,400
You should put any words in the questions that are new for you.

106
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:12,240
You should put any words that are new from the audio that you've never heard.

107
00:08:13,260 --> 00:08:19,290
And when you're making and creating a vocabulary list, a running vocabulary list, it's a really good

108
00:08:19,290 --> 00:08:24,270
idea to put in, of course, the definition, the context and synonyms of that word.

109
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:32,790
Again, if you are consistently doing this, then you're going to improve your overall vocabulary.

110
00:08:33,300 --> 00:08:37,290
The better your vocabulary, the easier it is to listen.

111
00:08:38,490 --> 00:08:38,750
Right.

112
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,290
That's just the fact.

113
00:08:40,290 --> 00:08:47,400
The more vocabulary you have, the easier it is to listen, read, write and speak.

114
00:08:48,090 --> 00:08:50,730
So vocabulary in general.

115
00:08:51,550 --> 00:08:55,030
Is just something that really applies to everything.

116
00:08:55,420 --> 00:08:57,790
And you build your vocabulary.

117
00:08:58,530 --> 00:09:06,720
Through the listening process, reading process, and also the writing process is how you build your

118
00:09:06,870 --> 00:09:08,580
your build your vocabulary.

119
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:14,940
But you have to have consistent habits, everybody consistent habits to be able to do that.

120
00:09:17,150 --> 00:09:24,020
Also when it comes to vocabulary in terms of listening is you want to keep track of your misspelled

121
00:09:24,020 --> 00:09:24,890
words.

122
00:09:25,550 --> 00:09:29,560
Again, a lot of students have very poor practice habits when it comes to this.

123
00:09:29,570 --> 00:09:30,770
Hold on, everyone.

124
00:09:30,770 --> 00:09:31,910
Please don't.

125
00:09:32,450 --> 00:09:34,670
Don't mark and annotate.

126
00:09:37,930 --> 00:09:38,320
Right.

127
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:39,320
Please don't do that.

128
00:09:39,340 --> 00:09:40,570
I've disabled it already.

129
00:09:40,570 --> 00:09:40,780
Don't.

130
00:09:40,780 --> 00:09:41,050
Don't.

131
00:09:41,050 --> 00:09:41,320
Mark.

132
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:42,610
And annotate on the screen.

133
00:09:44,070 --> 00:09:47,280
Och now when it comes to.

134
00:09:48,540 --> 00:09:49,560
Misspelling.

135
00:09:49,950 --> 00:09:55,800
Well, all the students do was just say, Oh, I misspelled that word, but they don't know how to really

136
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,330
overcome that problem.

137
00:09:58,290 --> 00:10:02,340
So the way you overcome this problem is you keep track.

138
00:10:03,020 --> 00:10:08,540
You know, you put on the left side of a table the word that you misspell on the right side, you put

139
00:10:08,540 --> 00:10:12,440
the word that you the correct spelling of the word.

140
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:20,150
And so you avoid this consistent problem by keeping track of the words that you are misspelling.

141
00:10:21,100 --> 00:10:21,540
Right.

142
00:10:21,540 --> 00:10:22,230
You keep that.

143
00:10:22,230 --> 00:10:27,360
So you know, you have to also what you might be able to end up doing when you're tracking your misspelled

144
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:28,170
words.

145
00:10:29,220 --> 00:10:35,490
It is, you will start to come across patterns of making the same type of mistake, spelling mistake

146
00:10:35,490 --> 00:10:38,610
over again, and then you kind of know what you need.

147
00:10:38,940 --> 00:10:41,290
What you need to specifically study.

148
00:10:41,310 --> 00:10:43,200
When it comes to vocabulary.

149
00:10:43,650 --> 00:10:45,870
Maybe you're having trouble with endings.

150
00:10:46,110 --> 00:10:48,360
Maybe you're having trouble with AI before e.

151
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,510
Maybe you're having trouble with that particular sound.

152
00:10:51,750 --> 00:10:58,230
But if you keep track, what you end up doing is when you're keeping track of misspelled words, you're

153
00:10:58,230 --> 00:11:03,060
able to see what specific type of mistake am I making.

154
00:11:03,210 --> 00:11:06,600
And then you know what to research and try to correct.

155
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:14,440
All right.

156
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:18,340
So let's talk about using the transcripts.

157
00:11:18,670 --> 00:11:23,050
So, of course, you find the transcripts in the back.

158
00:11:23,900 --> 00:11:24,870
Of your book, right?

159
00:11:24,890 --> 00:11:33,050
You find the transcripts in the back of your book, and it's a great way for being able to improve your

160
00:11:33,050 --> 00:11:36,230
overall listening are with the transcripts.

161
00:11:37,500 --> 00:11:38,340
So.

162
00:11:39,370 --> 00:11:43,780
After completing a listening practice, you go to the back of the book and you find the transcript.

163
00:11:45,270 --> 00:11:51,330
It's a great idea to read through and become familiar with how the different parts are structured and

164
00:11:51,330 --> 00:11:52,920
how answers are delivered.

165
00:11:53,460 --> 00:11:56,850
This will help you understand what the timing between answers.

166
00:11:57,590 --> 00:11:58,670
In a question.

167
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:07,790
So is if you really read transcripts and look at transcripts, you really become more comfortable and

168
00:12:07,790 --> 00:12:10,730
familiar with what they're doing and what they're talking about.

169
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:19,860
If you're only listening and you never look at what they're what they're saying, then you don't become

170
00:12:19,860 --> 00:12:21,570
as comfortable also.

171
00:12:22,620 --> 00:12:24,180
When you look at a transcript.

172
00:12:25,050 --> 00:12:30,180
You're able to really start looking at how much space is between the questions.

173
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:38,270
And also what you're able to see many times also is how questions come in different paragraphs.

174
00:12:38,750 --> 00:12:45,920
What that lets you know is you have to be able to recognize when they're making shifts in a conversation.

175
00:12:46,690 --> 00:12:46,990
Right.

176
00:12:46,990 --> 00:12:49,780
Or shifts in a one person lecture.

177
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:51,120
All right.

178
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:56,400
So you can see from the paragraphs you look at that you have to be able to hear a topic sentence.

179
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:57,840
Our votes are huge.

180
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,950
There's going to be a question and answer to come about that We upgrade all of our votes.

181
00:13:01,950 --> 00:13:04,140
There's going to be a question and answer about that.

182
00:13:04,140 --> 00:13:05,850
We offer you a free lunch box.

183
00:13:05,850 --> 00:13:08,040
There's going to be a question and answer about that.

184
00:13:09,410 --> 00:13:09,800
Right.

185
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:18,200
So being able to understand how where questions come from and how they're sectioned from different parts

186
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:25,280
of a conversation or different parts of a one person's speech or lecture that lets you know, well,

187
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,920
I have to listen for the transition.

188
00:13:28,660 --> 00:13:33,700
And then there's going to be some question and answer after that transition happens.

189
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:42,040
But you only get an awareness of this by reading through and reading through and analyzing transcripts

190
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:42,940
for structure.

191
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:54,930
Another great way to improve your listening score in terms of practice is by being able to.

192
00:13:56,210 --> 00:14:03,440
Play the audio and read through or look at the transcript while you're listening to the audio.

193
00:14:04,050 --> 00:14:09,780
That also helps you in terms of improving your understanding of what they're saying.

194
00:14:09,930 --> 00:14:13,020
Being able to look at some of the words that they say.

195
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,690
Where you weren't clear on the pronunciation.

196
00:14:16,330 --> 00:14:16,620
Right.

197
00:14:16,620 --> 00:14:19,440
So that's another great way of being able to practice.

198
00:14:20,650 --> 00:14:21,040
Okay.

199
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,290
So coming up, we're going to go over how to practice for the exam.

200
00:14:24,340 --> 00:14:28,300
And we're going to look at it within the context of the reading section.

201
00:14:30,340 --> 00:14:37,870
So in terms of reading practice suggestions, you can see that some of the reading practice suggestions

202
00:14:37,870 --> 00:14:40,750
and listening practice suggestions are actually the same.

203
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:46,570
Write synonym and paraphrase tables tracking and analyzing mistakes.

204
00:14:46,810 --> 00:14:49,600
Vocabulary new.

205
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:50,710
But don't worry about misspell.

206
00:14:50,710 --> 00:14:51,720
That shouldn't be there.

207
00:14:51,730 --> 00:14:53,680
It should be this new vocabulary.

208
00:14:54,160 --> 00:15:02,710
And then also the timed scanning practice, which is a really good skill to improve on also.

209
00:15:04,540 --> 00:15:08,620
So again when it comes to.

210
00:15:09,730 --> 00:15:13,480
You know, when it comes to synonym and paraphrase tables.

211
00:15:14,740 --> 00:15:24,100
You want to be able to look at the question, key keywords on one side and be able to look at the paraphrase

212
00:15:24,100 --> 00:15:25,210
on the other.

213
00:15:26,340 --> 00:15:26,730
Right.

214
00:15:26,730 --> 00:15:35,850
This really helps you again with being able to answer questions because many students waste so much

215
00:15:35,850 --> 00:15:36,510
time.

216
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,180
They waste so much time.

217
00:15:39,950 --> 00:15:46,580
When it comes to the reading section, because they can't they can't find the matching sentence because

218
00:15:46,580 --> 00:15:49,040
they can't find the synonym or the paraphrase.

219
00:15:49,220 --> 00:15:50,900
And I get questions all the time.

220
00:15:50,900 --> 00:15:52,490
How do I get better at this?

221
00:15:52,670 --> 00:15:54,410
Will you practice it?

222
00:15:55,300 --> 00:15:56,680
Well, you practice it.

223
00:15:56,710 --> 00:16:03,280
So after you do a reading passage, you take the question keywords, and you put them on the left and

224
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,340
you put the passage or synonym paraphrasing on the right.

225
00:16:07,060 --> 00:16:14,320
Now, here in which you're looking at the image here, I'm having, I'm putting full questions and the,

226
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:21,040
the passage part where it comes from on the right hand side, but also a great way to do it is simply

227
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:21,940
like this.

228
00:16:23,220 --> 00:16:28,230
Where you put the question keywords on the left side and the similar words in the passage on the right

229
00:16:28,230 --> 00:16:28,860
side.

230
00:16:30,630 --> 00:16:40,110
And every time you do a reading passage, this is what you do every single time because this is how

231
00:16:40,110 --> 00:16:42,480
they disguise answer choices.

232
00:16:43,270 --> 00:16:47,680
And this is how they this is how they disguise the matching sentence to the question.

233
00:16:48,570 --> 00:16:54,300
Because if you understand test design this, this is this is how you create a test question for for

234
00:16:54,300 --> 00:16:55,290
this exam.

235
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:57,790
You look in a paragraph.

236
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:04,050
You take one or two sentences from that paragraph and from those one or two sentences, you create a

237
00:17:04,050 --> 00:17:06,570
question and you derive an answer.

238
00:17:08,290 --> 00:17:08,710
Right.

239
00:17:08,710 --> 00:17:13,720
So when you're taking the test, you have to do the opposite of that.

240
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:15,670
You're given the question.

241
00:17:15,730 --> 00:17:21,910
You look at taking the keywords from the question going and finding this sentence that it comes from.

242
00:17:22,580 --> 00:17:25,130
So that you can see the correct answer choice.

243
00:17:27,140 --> 00:17:31,310
But if you do this over and over again, you're going to improve.

244
00:17:33,340 --> 00:17:37,330
Also, you want to be able to go through and have time to scanning practice.

245
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:39,090
Right.

246
00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:43,020
Time scanning practice is really, really helpful.

247
00:17:44,210 --> 00:17:44,600
Right.

248
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,150
So with time scanning practice.

249
00:17:48,390 --> 00:17:50,550
You might choose a reading passage.

250
00:17:50,610 --> 00:17:58,170
I personally like to use passages from the older books because I would I would if I were a student in

251
00:17:58,170 --> 00:17:59,430
studying for the test.

252
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:04,850
I'm going to use the newer books for my test simulation Practicing Black book.

253
00:18:04,860 --> 00:18:07,200
14, 15, 16, 17.

254
00:18:07,530 --> 00:18:14,660
And then for my skills practice, I might use the older books such as books six, seven, eight Write

255
00:18:14,730 --> 00:18:16,140
for skills practice.

256
00:18:16,140 --> 00:18:18,720
So that's that's something that's really great to do.

257
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,750
But time scanning practice.

258
00:18:22,660 --> 00:18:22,930
Right.

259
00:18:22,930 --> 00:18:31,990
So with time scanning practice, you put the question keywords on the left side of your table and then

260
00:18:31,990 --> 00:18:33,280
you will set a timer.

261
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:40,570
So if you have ten questions there, you'll set a timer for 4 minutes and then you'll practice scanning

262
00:18:40,570 --> 00:18:46,030
through a passage and trying to locate each one of those questions, each one of those matching sentences

263
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:47,830
in under 4 minutes.

264
00:18:48,830 --> 00:18:52,560
And then if you get really good at doing ten questions in 4 minutes.

265
00:18:52,580 --> 00:18:53,900
Lower the time.

266
00:18:54,230 --> 00:19:01,850
Go from 4 minutes to 3 minutes and see if you can scan and locate the matching the matching sentence

267
00:19:01,850 --> 00:19:04,100
for ten questions in 3 minutes.

268
00:19:04,610 --> 00:19:12,290
Because the faster you are at doing that and the more accurate you are doing that, the better you're

269
00:19:12,290 --> 00:19:14,330
going to be able to do at reading.

270
00:19:14,810 --> 00:19:20,810
What happens to a lot of students in terms of why they get bad scores is because they overread.

271
00:19:21,870 --> 00:19:22,170
Right.

272
00:19:22,170 --> 00:19:23,310
They overread.

273
00:19:24,270 --> 00:19:28,290
I told you already how a question and answer are designed.

274
00:19:29,010 --> 00:19:31,890
What you also need to know is how is we're wrong?

275
00:19:31,890 --> 00:19:33,030
Answers come from.

276
00:19:33,940 --> 00:19:39,820
Wrong answers come from sentences that are outside of the keyword sentence.

277
00:19:39,910 --> 00:19:47,200
So when you overread and you read too much, you read information for wrong answer choices, and then

278
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,900
you become confused and pick bad answers.

279
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,860
So the test is designed for scanning.

280
00:19:53,860 --> 00:19:55,960
It's a scanning test, not a reading test.

281
00:19:55,960 --> 00:20:01,060
I know it is reading, but it is a scanning and skimming skills test.

282
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,540
So the more accurate you do that, the better you're going to score.
