Testing Reflections

I believe that the biggest error I did while testing was that I did not focus enough to fully understand both of the first two short stories. When I began reading the stories, I quickly became uninterested in the reading, therefore I did not quite understand the questions asked. However, this is not the case for every story. For example, for some of the stories in previous SAT's were quite interesting, and I became more aware of what was going on and fully understood the questions asked. Another problem I encountered while testing was that in some of the answer choices, I did not understand what some words meant. For example, I did not know that the word "disdain" meant until I looked it up after the test. Also, I believe that I should have studied more the previous stories we have gone over, especially the earlier ones such as "I Stand Here Ironing." I had trouble remembering all the stories and their meanings.
