Description
The best way to get better at the SAT Math is through focused practice. Find out what you need to work on, practice those specific skills, and then move on. This book was written to help you do exactly that. Some SAT prep books have the concepts and techniques you need for the test, but very few (or no!) practice problems. Others have plenty of practice problems, but those problems aren’t representative of what’s actually on the SAT. Laser Focus on SAT Math fixes that. Learn the concepts and techniques you need to know, and then practice and master them.
The Math sections of the SAT ask the same types of questions, in the same ways, over and over again. So don’t waste time learning things you don’t need to know for the SAT! Figure out exactly what you need to focus on, and focus on it. This book was written after going through every single available SAT math section and carefully cataloguing WHAT was tested and HOW it was tested.
The Digital SAT uses an incredibly powerful onscreen calculator that can make many of the math questions trivial, if you know how to use it. Learn how to use the the onscreen calculator and, more importantly, when to use it to answer questions accurately and effectively.
This book doesn’t just tell you the techniques and concepts you need to master to do well on the SAT Math sections: it includes
over 1200 questions
to make sure you’ve mastered exactly what to do and when to do it. Each chapter includes drills to practice the concepts and techniques and SAT-style questions so you can see exactly how the questions would look on the real SAT. Every single question has full, step-by-step explanations so you can understand how to solve each question. That’s more than 600 SAT-format questions and more than 550 drill practice questions so you can walk into the SAT prepared for anything on the test.
Introductory quizzes in each chapter will help you focus on the material you need to work on the most. There’s no point wasting time on topics you’ve already mastered: find out what you need to prioritize and what can be set aside for a light review. Everyone takes tests and answers questions differently, so a one-size-fits-all approach to the SAT Math sections isn’t going to help: the chapters and explanations will carefully walk you through several ways of solving problems, and best practices to use for all problems. Find the ways of solving questions that work best for you.
Whether you’re trying to break 500 for the first time or trying to get a perfect 800 on the math section, this book has everything you need. Find out which concepts you don’t need to waste time on because they only show up once every couple of tests, or practice the tough concepts that only come up once or twice a test that you’ll need to master to get the score you want. No matter what score you’re aiming for, Laser Focus on the SAT Math will help you get there.
