How I Avoid Frustration When Tackling a Difficult Problem

Hi, my name is Andie and my goal is to help average students get into their dream colleges by becoming excellent test takers.

Learning something new can be difficult. I have found myself getting frustrated when I'm not learning it as fast as I want to or when I'm pressed for time and I don't manage to understand a concept on the first read through. In times like these, how I avoid frustration is by:

Stepping away from the problem. Taking a much needed step back can allow you time to process and reflect on the question and the methods you've been using to solve it. Sometimes, I'm able to return to the question later with a new idea on how to solve it or a different perspective on where I might have been going wrong.

Finding help. Going to your teacher or a tutor has been one of the most helpful things I've done. For so long, I was so scared of being seen as dumb that I avoided asking for help, even if I really needed it. But, I've learned that it's okay to ask for help!

Checking the steps I've already done. Sometimes the issue with your problem isn't what you think it is. There have been times when the reason I'm not able to move past a certain point in my problem is because there is an error with the work I've already done. Simply checking your work can help a ton!

Looking for a step-by-step tutorial for a similar problem. This has saved me so much time! Bonus points if the person explaining it doesn't assume you know everything (even if you "should") and takes the time to explain foundational concepts that are super important to be able to solve the problem.

These are just a few strategies that I have found helpful for me when I'm trying to tackle something difficult while preparing for an exam. If you’re using this to help figure out how you can prepare for your upcoming exam, I hope you found value in this article. If you did, please like it and share with a friend! And, I would love to hear what topics you would like for me to cover next!

Until Next Time,

Andie

forcing my brother to quickly read the ones who walk away from omelas so he has something to write in the college writing supplement question that basically tries to see if you read for fun or if they should reject you

#p #tbh it's so crazy that they ask this #like i know ppl who genuinely don't like reading. they don't enjoy novels or essays or poetry but they're v smart and interesting #anyway. thankfully i actually did force my brother to read some short stories awhile ago when he was doing prep for ap tests #and he liked several of them so we got to write those down too #he also whipped out a poem he likes that i've never heard of but it made me so emotional bc it's so him and Dad #it's called like those winter sundays or smth like that

How I Avoid Embarrassment When Asking Basic Questions

Hi, my name is Andie and my goal is to help average students get into their dream colleges by becoming excellent test takers.

Asking questions people believe (or assume) you should already know the answer to can be stressful and lead to embarrassment. When I was taking AP US History, I had a friend who constantly asked really basic questions frequently. Whenever her hand would go up, groans would sound around the classroom. I hated that for her, and started telling her to just ask me first and if I couldn't answer it then ask the teacher. And she thanked me, but declined. She was super confident and didn't care if anyone else was annoyed at her for seeking clarification.

There have been many times when I didn't ask a question I really needed to understand the answer to because I couldn't get over the embarrassment of asking such a "simple" question. Thinking back to this class and her confidence sometimes gave me the push I needed to just do it. But, that spark of confidence was fleeting and unsustainable. So, if anyone else is struggling with asking these types of questions, I would like to offer some tips on what has worked for me:

Find someone you trust to ask. I lucked out when taking calculus that I had a TA who was kind and non-judgemental. There were times I would show up to office hours and would struggle through elementary concepts. Fortunately, he was willing to break everything down even if the concept was simple and something I should remember learning a long time ago. Finding someone, be it another student or a teacher for a different class, that you know will be kind and explain whatever you're struggling with non-judgmentally can be really helpful when trying to push past the embarrassment of not knowing something and asking for help.

Google it. While I don't recommend becoming too reliant on tools such as WolframAlpha, Symbolab, etc. sometimes you may need to search their sites (and potentially sign up for a free trial) in order to see the problem broken down step-by-step. This way you're "asking" your question and not having to worry about what people will think of you because of it.

Send an email. Somethings are easier to ask via email.

If you're in class or choosing to ask questions face-to-face and the person you're asking says something along the lines of "you should already know this", keep this in mind:

It's important to remember that it's okay not to know everything, and it's better to ask for help than to pretend that you know something you don't. By letting them know that you don't know the answer and asking for help, you show that you are trying to learn.

Some responses you can consider to "you should already know this" are:

"I'm sorry, but I don't actually know the answer. Could you explain it to me?"

"I understand that I probably should know the answer, but I don't. Could you help me out?"

"I know I'm supposed to know this, but I'm not sure what the answer is. Could you help me?"

Don't be discouraged if you're preparing for an exam and you come across information you don't know or problems you don't know how to solve. My goal is to help you learn some strategies for improvement so you can master the content and get an excellent exam score! If you’re using this to help figure out how you can prepare for your upcoming exam, I hope you found value in this article. If you did, please like it and share with a friend! And, I would love to hear what topics you would like for me to cover next!

You've Got This,

Andie

don’t get me wrong, I love having a license, the only problem with it is that my mom suddenly expects me to do all of the grocery shopping? And if there’s no food in the house everyone gets angry at me?

I don’t think this is healthy for any of us at all, because I barely remember to get up and grab myself food when my bedroom shares a door with the kitchen.

So basically these people are going to starve because they think I’m responsible enough to go shopping regularly. Please I can only take so much adulting at once

#I’m really busy right now too #I have debate practice session two afternoons a week #prepping for nationals #and AP test prep #and work every other day #when am I supposed to have time to go grocery shopping?
