Almost any test can be challenging. Even those who learn fast and who get high scores in their exams will admit that only through perseverance studying hard were they able to achieve a good exam result. The same is true when taking SAT PREP test. You have to prepare really hard and learn the rules inherent in the exam.

 

As with any exams, the SAT PREP test has its standardized set of rules that you have to understand in order to achieve a good score. This article will provide you tips to guarantee a high SAT score.

 

Write in the test booklet

Use your booklet to your advantage when taking the SAT PREP exam. Anyway, nobody is going to read whatever you write on it. Use your booklet to write down formulas and equations or use available space when solving math problems. You can also use it when drafting an outline, paraphrasing or underlining a keyword to better understand what you have read.

 

Transfer answers at the end of each section

Going back and forth between the scantron and the test booklet can take too much of your time during the exam. Time which you don’t have. It is better to transfer your answer at the end of each section. This works by writing your answers in the test booklet and then later transferring these answers at the end of every section or page. This process will avoid mistakes and give you more time.

 

Don’t rush

Haste makes waste, so cool down and think. Rushing to answer all the problems can build up pressure and may make you prone to mistakes. Calm down and try answering only question you are sure of and not to guess when you are not. Keep in mind that a blank answer will give you zero points, but a wrong answer means a deduction of ¼ point. If you will compute, you will score higher if you answer 75% correct question than answer all the question but only get 50% of them correctly.

 

Choose your question and answer

Be careful which questions you answer first. Take this advice except for the Critical Reading section where the questions are organized from least difficult to the hardest. But it does not mean the easy questions will be the easiest to answer.
