Description

Many students struggle with the SAT because they feel like there is more than one correct answer. If this sounds like you, then this is the course for you! Every single question on the SAT has a clear answer that can be uncovered if you follow the right steps. In this course, I will show you how each question can be solved in just 2 or 3 simple steps. I divide the reading and writing section into three broad categories:Words-in-context (Vocabulary)Reading ComprehensionGrammarThis course will teach you how to tackle every single question type so that you can quickly and confidently pick the right answer each and every time.I have multiple perfect scores in the SAT and ACT and have unlocked the secret of how the College Board designs their test questions. Over the past two decades I have taught thousands of my students the secrets to the test and am sharing the lessons I have learned with you here in this course. To be successful, you will also need to practice these skills to refine your ability to execute them on test day. I strongly recommend doing all the practice tests on the College Board website and Khan Academy, only after watching all my lessons.
