SAT Practice Test with Answer Key with Complete Solutions.
The practice tests included with this workbook have been designed
to give you the real
... [Show More] “game day”-type practice you need to succeed on
the SAT. When you take the practice tests, you should try to replicate
the conditions of an actual SAT testing situation. Key points to
consider are:
• Make sure you have a long block of time where you can
concentrate on the test without interruption.
• Use the answer sheets provided in the back of this workbook
to get used to filling in your answers. Either tear them out or
copy them so you won’t need to flip back and forth.
• Have at least two sharp #2 pencils-get used to using them to
see how many you need to bring on test day.
• Use the same calculator you plan to use on test day. Don’t
forget to use it. It will save you time.
• Have some scratch paper handy.
• Use an accurate timer and strictly follow the allotted time for
each section. Don’t get in the habit of giving yourself any
more time than is allotted.
• Try to complete the whole test before checking your answers
on any section.
• Don’t flip back to the workbook for help. Struggle through
and then go back and review the sections of the workbook
and DVDs as needed.
Once you have completed a practice test, turn to the answer section
and check your answers. Once you’ve checked your answers, go back
to the test questions and try to understand what you did wrong on
the ones you missed. This type of review will help you understand
and correct any trouble areas you have.
NOTE: The practice tests included in this workbook do not contain an
