Series Details
About
This course is targeted towards students taking the August DSAT and would like a crash course on the Reading and Writing section. Here, we will discuss everything there is about the DSAT writing and how to ace it!
Because we'll be moving rather fast, this course expects an intermediate proficiency for the R&W section, namely for those scoring at least 550 or above. (For those who are below, you are welcome to join, however, we won't have too much time to dive deep into the basics.) However, I would be open to hosting additional sessions for these if demand is enough.
I'll also be sharing the tips and tricks I used to score a perfect 800 on the section, and some live walkthroughs that will help train your speed and consistency.
Furthermore, we'll also be doing some practice tests and assignments; therefore, this course also expects you to spend some time (roughly 3-4 hours overall) reviewing / practising outside sessions. This is done to maximize the series' effectiveness within the time that we have.
✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY
Try to attend every session because we will be moving quite fast. However, if you miss more than two sessions, I may be forced to remove you to make space for others.
