Tips for SAT I

The SAT reasoning test is either required or recommended for most colleges in the US. Here are some things to keep in mind:

• Basic mathematics and english are used to test your reasoning/aptitude.
• Since this is not an 'achievement' test, you do not need to learn or memorize anything.
• The duration of the test is over 3 hours - it is important that you remain focussed for the entire duration (there will be breaks). Be sure to get a full night's sleep before the test.
• A good vocabulary and decent reading speed are essential to do well on the Critical Reading section of the test. Both of these can be achieved fairly easily through regular reading.
• Use the official CollegeBoard SAT book to familiarize yourself with the test.
