š§® SAT Math tips
- Skip any question that doesnāt come easily. You donāt want to lose 5 minutes on a single question! (Remember that every question is worth the same, thereās no difference between easy and hard questions.)
- Donāt leave anything blank! Instead, if you donāt know the answer to a question, try to guess it via elimination like I explained here.
- Read the question carefully. When you have read it carefully, read it again. Always underline critical info in the question, solve the problem in a general way and then read the request again to give the correct answer.
š§āāļø Final general tips (and how to stay relaxed)
- Bring something to eat and to drink. You will need energies to do your best during the test.
- Bring an analogic watch (digital watches are not allowed) and keep it on your desk. You will need this to keep track of the time you spend on each exercise.
- Come to the test well rested. A good night of sleep is the best way to relax before the test!
- Donāt stress it too much! If it doesnāt go as you wished, you will still be able to take it again (even though Iām sure youāll do GREAT).
- Do something you find relaxing the day before the test, get a good breakfast and listen to some music on the way to the test venue! This is what I personally did before my SAT, and Iām sure itāll help you, too.
