SAT: A Guide to the Exam

If you are thinking of becoming college bound after high school, SAT’s are the key in helping you get there. During your sophomore or junior year of high school, you will most likely take the college entrance exam.

There are so many ways to prepare for the test. One of which is the PSAT. In this practice test, test takers are exposed to questions like ones on the SAT. It will also help test takers become familiar with how the SAT works. 

Another way to study is to get study books such as the Official SAT Study Guide. This book is very beneficial and will help improve your score.
