SAT & ACT Strategy Books to Take You to the Next Level
The SAT & ACT can be extremely approachable and beatable with the correct strategies. We analyzed student performance with thousands of data points to compile not only the best possible strategies but the best possible prep plan based on data and real student results.
This book does not contain the fluff and excess of most SAT/ACT books - we purposefully condensed this book down to the most important pieces. We are discussing deep strategy - strategy that will tangibly improve your score.
What to Expect: The purpose of both books is to explain detailed, powerful, and precise SAT strategy. After reading either the SAT or ACT book, you will have a comprehensive understanding of:
- What the exams consists of
- What makes these exams extremely beatable
- What the scoring and scaling structure is
- The necessary foundational skills needed to succeed
- How you should approach each question type
- How to become a "natural born test taker"
- How to utilize the tricks and traps on the test to your advantage
- How to take a totally different perspective on testing that will increase your score on all standardized tests
- Various test taking strategies that differ based on your unique learning style
- And much more.
If you want the best strategies, to improve your score as quickly as possible, and achieve the highest score you can, then these books are for you. If you want to have the ideal reading comprehension strategy, and the best math and science knowledge, this book is for you. We've left the actual practice of test questions to the test makers, making these strategy books perfect supplements to your other test prep resources.
