Hi, I'm studying for the SAT and ACT (which I will be taking in 10 weeks). Can anyone recommend a good plan of attack? I've ordered an SAT study guide, so I have access to full practice exams and individual sections. I'm home schooled, so I can work on it any day of the week. I was thinking of drilling Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, then taking a full practice test every Saturday. My math scores need to go up - I was thinking of drilling for math on Monday, critical reading + vocab + timed essay writing on Wednesday, and then math again Friday.

Question

don't study to hard, if you do that you will fail, take your time, go over questions with family and friends, on the night of your exam go to bed early with a light dinner nothing to much to eat. eat a big breakfast in the morning and go the the mirror and tell yourself you will pass....best of luck to you!!

I can help you with critical reading @rock_mit182, my scores are really good there.

anonymous · Answer

Thanks, @amistre64! I'll use that for sure :)

anonymous · Answer

@rock_mit182 I can help with critical reading and writing practice. I need help with my math skills, but here I was mainly requesting help on what kind of study schedule works best to prepare in a 10-week period. Do you think 3 drills a week + 1 full test a week will work well, or would that be too much?

Is there a way you can study together on here? Would private messaging work?

rock_mit182 · Answer

i guess is on may and not april the next date

anonymous · Answer

I think it's three to seven weeks after you take the exam, or you can pay to get results 10-14 days after.
