In this informal vlog‑style monologue, the speaker recounts a pre‑SAT experience where a science question about how obsidian is made was answered correctly thanks to knowledge from playing Minecraft (pouring water on lava). He uses this anecdote to illustrate how video‑game knowledge can unexpectedly aid standardized testing. The speaker then shares several SAT‑taking strategies: using a thought‑process to avoid repeating answer choices, eliminating options that have already appeared, and defaulting to answer C when unsure because it statistically has a higher chance of being correct (26%). He delivers these tips in a humorous, slightly dismissive tone, expressing boredom with the lengthy SAT session and acknowledging the video’s filler content. The monologue ends with a casual sign‑off.

How's it going guys? Yes, you did read the title correctly. I was taking an SAT and Minecraft actually helped me answer one of the questions. Or I shouldn't say SAT, pre-SAT. I'm not old enough to take the SAT, or I haven't chosen to take my SAT yet, but my school does pre-SATs and one of the questions, I'll just go ahead and tell you, was how is obsidian made? It was something like that. And the second I saw that question, I was like, Minecraft! And the 4 answers, because obviously it's an SAT, you get A, B, C, or D. Was like heating something up, cooling, crushing, I don't remember what D was, and I was thinking to myself, you know, in Minecraft, how do you make obsidian? Well, you pour water on lava, so the water cools lava. Oh my gosh, it's A! And so I got the question right on the SAT because of Minecraft. So technically, Minecraft boosted my SAT score, or pre-SAT score. But I thought that was pretty funny, and since I'm talking about SATs, I might as well give you guys a couple tips about it, because I have the pro-est of the strats.. And one of the biggest things is you gotta use thought process when taking your SATs. So obviously if answer number 1 is B and answer number 2 is B, answer number 3 is not B. So, you know, answer number 3, you put C. Well then answer number 4 is either A or D. And so you decide D is answer number 4. Then obviously answer number 5 is A. But I'm pretty sure you guys already knew that. I just wanted to make sure, uh, a couple people don't really understand the thought process that goes in to taking a test. If you've already used something twice, it's not gonna be used a third time. I mean, I— you guys get it. And then, um, always pick C if you don't know the answer. C has a 26% chance of being right, and not a lot of people know that, but C does have a higher percentage chance of being right than A, B, or D. Um, most people don't understand that or comprehend it, and it's okay, they're just not as smart. But that's pretty much all I really wanted to tell you. I thought it was really funny how Minecraft actually did help me do better on my SAT. It was in the science category, and I would not have got that question right if I had not played Minecraft and known that you pour water on lava to make obsidian. So, you know, you cool it off. And so, I don't know, I thought that was cool and just decided to share that with you guys, give you guys a couple tips for when you take your SAT. And, uh, that's pretty much all I really wanted to say. I'm bored out of my mind because we spent like 2 hours doing those freaking SATs, and they're boring as crap. But, uh, Yeah, that's pretty much that. You probably are realizing that I don't really have anything to talk about and just, you know, making the video longer just 'cause. So, uh, yeah, hope you enjoyed. I really don't know why you're still watching this. Or, I mean, I kind of know why, but you shouldn't watch. I should get an outro. I really want an outro. That'd be nice. I'm too lazy to make one though. Anyways, see you later.
