Rishab's Best Test Taking Tips from High School
Today, I want to give you some of my best test-taking tips from high school. I'm not the best test-taker in the world, but I'd say I'm pretty good -- and over the years, I've racked up some techniques that I think will be especially helpful for some of the freshmen and sophomores here. ACT/SAT: Just take practice tests. Sit in a quiet room, time yourself, and pretend as if it's the real test. You will improve your score just by understanding the tempo and flow of the test, without actually "learning" material. AP: For AP classes, just get a "steps to a 5" book close to your test. If you complete this book (can grind through it in about a week), you should be locked in for a 5. This allowed me to prioritize research and extracurriculars during the school year, and quickly grind in the few days after ISEF for each of my AP tests. Study rules: 1. Be well-fed. Get good food and make sure you're "full" before doing long study sessions. Helps you get in "deep work" mode. 2. Be in a completely separate room when you're studying. 3. If you procrastinate or waste 5 hours, it doesn't mean you should waste the next 1-2. Stop feeling bad for yourself- just reset (drink water, shower, etc.) and start working again with real effort. Testing rules: 1. Before important tests, take a cold shower. You will shock yourself awake if you were tired, and you will calm yourself down if you were nervous. 2. Use later questions in a test to help you guess answers for earlier questions. 3. When trying to figure out an answer, ask yourself "what concept is my teacher trying to test here" -- and based on that, you can figure out the answer that makes more sense. Deep Work by Cal Newport. Reading this book was super relatable for me. Rather than working 40 hours of 50% effort, I personally work 10 hours at 100% effort. This lets me also do extracurriculars, other academics, and spend time with friends. If you can get into "deep work mode", it's a gamechanger- you'll learn to enjoy the feeling of work and it'll let you succeed in school, competitions, anything really.

@Rishab Jain ikr, her blogs are so interesting!!
Which one is Impactful ECA?
Imagine you can go at the peak of any of them, what will it be? And WHY? N.B: This post is for "thinking about your passion". So, take your time, think about it. If you don't find any of them interesting, do ignore. TIA.

imo it really depends on how far you go with it and that's why depth in ecs is so important. Like for example, a non profit that has reached thousands of people is way more impressive than being a data monkey at a local university. But then again placing at a top science fair is way more impressive than starting a random npo that has no actual purpose

@Ahnaf Tahmid Uddin oh i did not read the top part properly lol. But i definitely think i would want to peak in research. after seeing peoples experiences and looking into the field, what really captivates me personally is the limitless boundaries of the research and its incredible potential to help people and facilitate my personal growth
