The SAT Lock-In Challenge is officially over, and the results are out! 623 challengers took part across the full run, which is honestly a pretty good turnout. Here are some of the results: 🏆 Top 5 🥇 Static Sakai — 30 points · 1,213 questions · 85.1% accuracy 🥈mufliha— 29 points ·1,932 questions· 89.1% accuracy 🥉mekov— 29 points ·1,427 questions· 76.4% accuracy 4️⃣Jw2— 28 points ·1,835 questions· 73.4% accuracy 5️⃣TheBear— 28 points ·1,293 questions· 82.1% accuracy One thing that stood out was the amount of work the Top 30 put in. The average student in the Top 30 answered 1,440 questions and completed 28 hours of focused practice, which works out to about 92 minutes per challenge day. And there were some pretty big score improvements too: - ArnavB: 1180 → 1410 (+230) across 1,042 questions - Cade: 1250 → 1400 (+150) across 962 questions - Skittle_Wizard: 1330 → 1470 (+140) across 1,396 questions - Omky: 1350 → 1460 (+110) across 2,188 questions - Lapislazuli: 1310 → 1420 (+110) across 651 questions - Kasper Echo: 1250 → 1360 (+110) across 1,171 questions - Nello: 1330 → 1430 (+100) across 1,327 questions - datbombdotcom: 1390 → 1480 (+90) across 1,433 questions And the 1500+ section is pretty interesting too, since getting points at that level is obviously harder: - TheBear: 1400 → 1520 (+120) across 1,323 questions - Dhami: 1450 → 1510 (+60) across 1,907 questions - tinaphan: 1440 → 1500 (+60) across 1,062 questions - Static Sakai: 1470 → 1500 (+30) across 1,271 questions The biggest takeaway from all of this is probably just consistency. A lot of these people weren't doing a few practice tests and magically jumping hundreds of points. They were answering hundreds/thousands of questions over multiple days and actually sticking with it. Also, shoutout to everyone who participated even if you didn't make the leaderboard. The whole point of a challenge like this is getting yourself to actually sit down and study, and that's already a win.

Answer to yesterday's was A. Since the contradiction (in terms of the logic) was between the first sentence and the FIRST HALF of the second sentence, you have to put "however;" Alright, you guys said you want some hard questions: DIFFICULTY: HARD

Hey guys I’m really scared for tomorrow’s sat and I’m stuck at 1370-1390 even though I solved all the geometry data analysis and advanced math hard questions on the question bank. When I solve the sat practice test while watching someone else doing it and pausing the video I got a 1500 but when I do it alone I always get 1370-1390. I don’t know what to do anymore and I studied so much and I really don’t want to repeat it again :(

It took me 4 days to complete both of these courses, but I did it!

Today we remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001. It's a day that changed countless lives and left a lasting impact on the world. Beyond the tragedy, it's also a reminder of the courage shown by first responders, the resilience of survivors, and the strength people can find when they come together in difficult times. Never forget.
