Sat Prep: A Strategic Roadmap To Exam Success

In this class, we will review the SAT by question type - focusing on concrete strategies for each type of question. We will practice each question type, using the strategies we went over, and spend some time going over student questions.

We will always cover the topic listed first in the session, but because students are encouraged to bring questions, we may cover other topics each class as well.  

Note that the entire sequence is 12 weeks - students can jump in at any time.
