As a recent SAT recipient, i suggest that you study your weak topics and go over your strong topics the day before. As for the test try your best not to get nervous, the test isn't very complicated but does require a certain level of knowledge. Don't waste to much time on one question skip and come back to it. Also for reading sections i suggest you read the questions first And then the passages or stories given. Try your best and read each question carefully for hints or to avoid any reading errors.

I suggest that you build up your vocabulary, the SAT has a lot vocabulary that is unknown to students. Also when you do not know the answer to one of the multiple choice questions you should try taking an educated guess. You can eliminate some multiple choice answers that you think are absolutely wrong by taking an educated guess, by doing this you have more chances to obtain the correct answer. Anyways just work in those areas of the SAT that you need help and you'll be alright .

As the SAT approaches i would suggest, everyone to prepare adequately and take classwork seriously. The SAT will not be as hard as it is perceived if we all give our quota. Vocabulary, critical reading and the essay are all important areas of study. If they are mastered, the test should be a breeze. Just keep studying and do more practice tests.

I suggest to classmates that they should practice more so that they can better in their weaknesses. Practice more vocabulary and writing essays and critical reading because the more you practice the better you get. Take practice tests online and time yourself because we have to keep in mind the SAT is timed. Do not be afraid of the SAT just prepare yourself adequately and make sure that when you take it and you are stuck with the multiple choice, take educated guesses by doing process of elimination. This is all i have to say and good luck everyone.

I suggest to just allow time for yourself to study and practice. Don't over work yourself 3 days before the SAT. If you study everything all in one night you'll put too much stress on yourself and your results won't be so good. Take an hour or two each day to study (especially for the vocabulary) so when it is time for you to take the test you won't go blank during the test. Also practice makes perfect so if you know you're not so good at writing a persuasive essay don't be afraid to ask for help, in the end it will be beneficial for you with great results.

As the SAT is approaching it's well known that many students tend to be very nervous including myself. However with a lot of pratice tests and quality study time we will all do alright.One advice that I would give to my fellow classmates is to not pressure yourself.The SAT is a knowledge test ,therefore there is no need to stress yourself over it's either you know the stuff or you don't.The most important thing is to have confidence and believe in yourself.Don't pressure yourself ,concentrate on the part that you most confident in .If you are a math genius make sure you do very well on the math part and finish off the rest on the English.IT's very normal to be nervous but don't pressure yourself to the point where you won't be able to concentrate .
