How To Prepare For SAT Exams

Not only in Ghana, but millions of students worldwide take the SAT each year as a step on their way to their dream college or getting any scholarship opportunity.

If you’re about to graduate from Senior High School, you’re seemingly very excited about having a perfect SAT score and enrolling at your dream college.

The only way to get high scores for your SAT is to prepare hard for it. You may ask, what is the best way to prepare for my SAT exams? How do I practice? Should I go for a Private Tutor?

The questions can be on and on. However, the best advice George web has for you in this post is recapitulated in the steps below. Learn how to prepare for your SAT exams by following our simple tips.

Tip #1: Start Reading More Outside Of Class.

As you’re ready to take your first SAT, it would be best if you start reading a lot. During the SAT, you’ll have five long passages one after another in just one hour. The reading part of SAT is what makes it difficult for many people.

However, to catch up with things more straightforward, start reading many nonfiction books as a preparation for the SAT. Most of the passages you’ll read will be nonfiction.

Don’t focus on your core or elective subjects alone. You have to be a generalist. Because you’re preparing for SAT, let your reading be universal. Start reading magazines or newspapers you come across to set your brain up for any nonfiction passages.

Tip #2: Work More On Your Mental Maths

Mental maths means working maths without the use of a calculator. The reason is that the third and fourth sections of the whole SAT exam focus on math. The third section of the test is the first section headed, “Math Test—No Calculator.”

And in that part, no calculator is allowed. So what will you do then? Sit down and chew your pen as we usually do in class two? NO! Then start working hard on your mental maths to get a high SAT math score.

Tip #3: Find Out And Work On Your Weaknesses

We’re not here to scare you of the SAT, but you have to analyze your weakness and work on it. As for me, maths was my only problem when I was in Senior High School.

My weakness wasn’t the difficulty of the subject, but my lack of working maths. I took maths as a reading subject instead of working and practicing more. So you, too, get to know where your weakness lies.

If you’re not sure whether you have any weaknesses or not, I advise you to take this diagnostic test to see which areas you need to work on when preparing for the SAT.
