In other ways, it leaves clues and loopholes for students clever enough to hack the test. And in this class, you’ll learn some valuable secrets to conquer the SAT math section. Secrets include:
•How to turn dense algebra into simple arithmetic by picking numbers
•How to use answer choices as assets.
•Mental math shortcuts for the no-calculator section.
