    I didn't get a perfect 800 in Maths but I scored 790. Unexpected mistakes happen. But, maths is all about knowing the basic stuffs. Before starting to solve the problems, I suggest you to know all the theory, because if you know the base stuffs, it will be easier for you to do all the problems related to those chapters.
    When I started, I didn't pay a lot of attention to the basic stuff and just practiced the questions. In time, I found out that I was making mistakes in same type of problems. I was either unsure about the answer choice or I didn't know the answers at all. So, I started learning from the base and learned how those questions worked and how to find the right answers.
    Hope that helped!

    Thank you! I have been at my SAT prep since yesterday, for about 5 hours that day, and I was always stressed out to how to solve these kinds of problem, because when I take the practice mini sections for the math section, I'd get over half wrong. Now, thanks to you, I have a little knowledge on how to tackle the math section
    Just a little more practice.

    Sophomore. I’ve been taking practice tests on Kahn Academy and I got 700 reading and writing but 550 on math. I was only able to complete like half of the questions in the no calculator section before running out of time and guessing for the remaining half. With the calculator-permitted section, I ran out of time for the remaining 10 questions. I just can’t seem to work efficiently.

    On that first factoring question, what I do is; the answer that has the most in common, like the ending in 'C' was the same in some of the other answers but the beginning of it was the same with only one other answer...So I got C quickly...I'm glad it was actually correct

    On the one at 7:33, I would just eliminate the first two answer choices because the question does not show linear stuff and the answer choices do. And C is really really huge, so it wouldn't work. I really like how you talked about all of the questions. :D

    Fun Fact, if the question gives you 3 pieces of information set it up as a Ratio. Let's use your car example. We are given 3 numbers out the back (use measurements always) 50MPH, 21 gallons a tank, and 17 gallons initially. so set it up as a ratio and you get 50x/21 you can then turn it into an equation by adding the third number, f(x)=50x/21-17 ... you don't even have to read the whole question and it took you less than a minute to do! steps are 1. determine terms 2. turn into a ratio 3. turn into an equation.
