Consider reaching out to us today if you'd like to get help preparing for the SAT. In the sections that follow, you'll hear more about the SAT and how Varsity Tutors can help you study for it.
What's covered on the SAT?
The content of your Denver SAT prep supplement will mirror the content of the SAT exam. To that end, it's worthwhile to spend some time learning about what you'll actually be tested on when taking the SAT. The exam has three required sections, which focus on the topics of Reading, Writing and Language, and Math. The SAT also has an optional Essay section that you may or may not decide to complete. Completing this part of the exam is a good way to show the colleges you apply to your skill set as a writer.
The Math section has a total of 58 questions and a time limit of 80 minutes. It is scored on a scale ranging from 200 to 800 points. This part of the SAT is a two-part section, one which allows test-takers to use a calculator and one that doesn't. The content areas of the section focus on algebra, problem-solving and data analysis, and the passport to advanced math.
The Reading section of the SAT features 52 multiple-choice questions and has a time limit of 65 minutes. The score you earn on this test section will be combined with your score from the Writing and Language test for one score ranging from 200 to 800 points. You'll be asked to read a number of passages that focus on different academic topics, including science, social science, and history. The content areas of this exam focus on your command of evidence, words in context, and analysis in history, social studies, and science.
The Writing and Language section of the SAT has 44 multiple-choice questions and a time limit of 35 minutes. All of the questions on this test section will come from the written passages that test-takers are asked to read. Some of these passages will include things like tables, graphs, and charts. This part of the exam was designed to assess similar skills to the ones that are assessed in the Reading section of the SAT.
Finally, if you decide to complete the SAT's Essay section, then you'll be given 50 minutes to do so. You'll be tasked with reading a passage and then assessing what you've read in an essay format. To perform well on this part of the exam, you'll need strong reading comprehension skills as well as the ability to analyze what you've read to create a quality essay that showcases your analysis.
How can Denver SAT preparation help you get ready for the SAT?
If you're interested in getting help studying for the SAT, then Varsity Tutors has two unique test preparation options that can supplement your study sessions. You can choose to take a Denver SAT prep class or work with a private test preparation instructor. Both of these options have unique benefits that may appeal to different test-takers for various reasons.
For example, taking a Denver SAT prep course could be the right option for you if you're someone who has previously enjoyed the traditional classroom learning experience. Your course will recreate the classroom atmosphere in a more convenient online setting. You can log on to a live virtual platform and learn from an experienced instructor alongside a group of peers. Your instructor will go over everything that you need to know before taking the SAT and you can interact with your peers, which may further supplement your learning experience.
When you sign up to take a course, you'll even have the option of working with your instructor in a one-on-one setting if you need extra help with a challenging topic. This ensures that it's easy to get the guidance you need to make the SAT preparation progress that you've been working towards. There are a number of course options that you can sign up for as well and new courses begin weekly. This makes it easy to find an option that fits within the confines of your other obligations. Consider reaching out to us today if you think that this is the right option for your academic needs.
You may also be interested in working with a Denver SAT tutor. Working with a tutor is a unique way to prepare for the SAT. You'll be able to meet with your instructor for one-on-one study sessions. This personalized learning environment enables your instructor to create a customized lesson plan for you that's based on things like your test goals, learning style, and existing academic skill set. You'll be able to work through each lesson at your own pace and stop to get extra guidance whenever you need it.
How can I get started with the test preparation option I'm interested in pursuing?
If you're interested in signing up for a Denver SAT prep supplement, then the best way to do so is by contacting Varsity Tutors directly. We can help you decide on the learning plan that makes the most sense for your needs and can then get you started with it quickly. We'd love to help you get more out of your study sessions and feel more confident on the day of your SAT exam. We look forward to working with you.
