Description:

We at Shmoop are all about being proud of your strengths. We also enjoy identifying your, uh, not-so-strengths so we can help you dominate them with a few well-placed ninja kicks. (If your brain could kick, anyway.) That's what our diagnostic exams are for. Don't think of them as tests; think of them as tools to help you figure out where to focus your review.

We'd need what's a diagnostic and why should i take

00:08

it all right Fair questions Let's Start with the what

00:14

diagnostic is similar to what a doctor performs on his

00:17

patients Patients give him a list of their symptoms He

00:20

checks him out turn your head and cough please and

00:24

then the doctor tells them what gore disease they have

00:29

or don't have eye Yeah ok that's In real life

00:33

when it comes to test however a diagnostic assesses your

00:36

mental acumen rather than your physical well being This is

00:41

your brain yellow This is your brain in the form

00:45

of a test score Any questions Um diagnostic is a

00:49

kind of test which is a shorter version of the

00:51

actual test in fact it's just long enough so that

00:55

we can determine how healthy or sick you are in

00:58

terms of the test anyway way can't help you with

01:00

your car For example you may learn from the diagnostic

01:04

that you were close to dying in long passages on

01:07

the or that your ap spanish language skills are no

01:11

bueno So the diagnostic will give you a reasonable idea

01:17

of what you've got in the bag where you need

01:19

to improve Now on to the wine You may like

01:24

avoiding bad news but while the diagnostic maybe optional those

01:28

dreaded test you're forced to take are not If you

01:30

want to be a full fledged member of collegeville you

01:33

have to bite the bullet on this one Thie diagnostic

will surface the areas where you may be a little

01:38

weak so that you can hone your skills in preparation

01:41

for the big day And it doesn't make sense to

01:44

waste your time studying this stuff You already know if

01:47

you're already a master of science reasoning then part of

01:51

your prep shouldn't get the same amount of time is

01:54

the english portion If you do a terrible job on

01:58

the ap chemistry diagnostic it'll let you know It doesn't

02:02

mince words and you'll be aware that you should probably

02:05

eat sleep and breathe the periodic table for the next

02:07

couple of weeks to diagnose That can also help you

02:10

get your timing down with its nifty correct versus time

02:14

graft Don't set yourself up for success Shmoop sandy danny

02:18
