    1. Figures are usually to scale (eyeball it)

      Ok so I don’t know about other states but in Georgia, one of the things you have to do to get the Zell Miller scholarship is to score a 1200 on the SAT. What Zell Miller does is that it pays for college tuition but some private schools won’t take it but most colleges in Georgia will.

    Another thing guys, if you are studying for the SAT, it's more about PRACTICE than staying the material. That way you learn what YOU need to work on or learn. Kahn Academy is great for practicing too, but those SAT Prep. books are totally worth it.

    For me, it helped to give questions a 30 second-ish about of time, and if you can't solve it by then, move on and come back. And also a stupid test doesn't rep your self worth. It's necessary, yes, so try your best, but don't let it connect to you self-image. And good luck guys.

    Summary of this Video:
    Geometric questions are to scale, (eyeball it)
    dont't approximate unless stated in the question
    don't use a calculator on a question that doesn't require it
    nobody cares about the essay; try your best but don't stress
    trust your first instinct; don't second guess your self unless you know you made an error
    contrary to the last tip, double check your bubble sheet
    READ ALL THE ANSWERS, then pick the answer
    don't pick what you think is the right answer, just read the choices and pick which one makes the most sense
