How can a tutor help you master the SAT?
The SAT is a standardized test that is utilized by many colleges and universities as a part of the undergraduate admissions process. It consists of three sections, including an essay section, a math section, and a critical reading section.
The essay section requires you to write an essay. This section is optional, but your essay and score in this section are still sent to any college or university you apply to. Thus, it is still a good idea to prepare for the essay section. The math section includes algebra, proportional reasoning, complex equations, ratios, and linear equations. It also covers math fluency, conceptual understanding, and applications.
