this book is the sat bible\u2013questions created by the writers of the test (the college board). it has plenty of practice tests and content to give you a sense of the actual difficulty and complexity of the test (it\u2019s more difficult than the content found in the other books). you can find it on amazon<\/a> for under $20. if you’re on a budget, you can also download the practice tests<\/a> used in this schedule for free.<\/p>\n

day 1: get to know the test<\/h2>\n

1.<\/strong> open up your official sat study guide, and take the first practice test<\/a>! you’ll be covering reading, writing and language, and math, just like on the real sat. make sure to time yourself for each section.<\/p>\n

2. <\/strong>grade your test (you can find the answers in the back of the book).<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> figure out what you missed and why you missed it. you should spend a few minutes trying to figure out the correct answer (don\u2019t just look at the answer right away).<\/p>\n

4.<\/strong> if you had any trouble with the math sections, watch our sat video explanations<\/a> for a step-by-step guide to solving each math problem.<\/p>\n
