Winnipeg SAT Subject Test in United States History Tutoring FAQ
The SAT Subject Test in U.S. History is a one-hour, 90-question, multiple-choice exam that allows you to demonstrate your mastery of United States History to colleges. While some colleges do not require SAT Subject Tests in their application criteria, many colleges require applicants to present scores from two or more of these tests as further evidence by which they can evaluate your academic abilities. If you are a history buff or have recently taken and performed well in a U.S. History course, this SAT Subject Test may be a good option for you.
Of course, taking a standardized test without any preparation is not advised, so consider private tutoring to help you master the content and skills you need to gain before test day. A personal instructor can help you identify areas of weakness or gaps in your U.S. History knowledge that may be detrimental to your performance on the test. A SAT U.S. History tutor can then work to help you fill in these gaps and correct these weaknesses as you prepare for test day.
Using teaching strategies and practice exercises customized to fit your learning style and needs, your tutor can create an individualized lesson plan designed to help you maximize your success on the SAT Subject Test in U.S. History. Beyond helping you learn the material that will be on the test, tutoring can also help you acquire valuable test-taking skills that can help you complete test questions efficiently and accurately. Being able to apply particular strategies to questions that confuse you can help you get more questions correct than you might by just guessing. Additionally, learning how to make the most of your time while taking the test can be a major advantage as well. While you may have mastered the material, if you do not manage your time effectively, you may not even get the chance to answer all of the questions on the test. Learning test-taking skills during private tutoring sessions can make the difference between choosing to send your resulting score along with your college application, and deciding not to send it at all.
In addition to helping you with the test material and test-taking strategies, a talented tutor can also help you figure out the best way to study. Many students are unsure how to study, and those who do rarely know the best method or methods for their particular learning style. A private tutor can help with this because they can help you figure out the best way to study based on your strengths and weaknesses. This can be difficult to identify on your own, but an elite private tutor has the necessary experience to make these determinations. An experienced tutor knows how overwhelming it can be to take these college admissions tests alongside your normal academic requirements. Your tutor can work with you to make tutoring a convenient, low-stress part of your test preparation.
Tutors set their own schedules, so they can work to accommodate your preferences for meeting times and locations. You will likely get more out of your study sessions if you feel comfortable, so you are encouraged to pick a location to meet your tutor that offers maximum comfort. Varsity Tutors' live learning platform also enables you to meet with your private tutor face-to-face online. This allows you to pick the time and location that is most convenient and comfortable for you.

Recent Winnipeg SAT Subject Test in United States History Tutoring Session Notes
For the reading section, we talked about how to manage time, skim, and mark the passages. The student tends to like the science articles most, so she should start with those. As soon as one of the articles is especially hard to read, she should abandon it and come back to it as the last passage.
In my last session with the student we focused solely on the math and science section of the exam. I reminded her once again to look for shortcuts on the math section (like magic triangles) in order to save time. On the science section she is doing a better job of determining which graphs/charts to use with each question. Overall she seems confident and I believe that she will do very well on the exam.
The student and I spent all the time on the math section. Its her weakest but she is starting to see the trends in how the exam is asking questions. Her goal is to accurately answer the first forty questions or so. If she gets to the last 20 that will be great. She needs help with the critical thinking aspects of applying math. Reading and understanding the questions are getting easier as she is working with each question type.
The student and I began our session today with examining the scoring rubric and reader expectations for the exam essay. I reviewed these guidelines with her and then had her read various essays and give them scores. We talked about what each essay did well, but also where they could improve. She scored all of the essays very closely to what the readers did, so she seems to have a good grasp of the essay expectations. We then focused in on writing and reading. She is doing much better in the writing section, probably largely due to her extensive work on grammar with her previous tutor. She is also improving in the reading section now that we are perfecting her strategy of reading less of the actual passage and focusing on the content of the questions. She continues to feel confident in math, so we do some practice with this section but mostly focus on reading and writing.
The student had gotten his PSAT results from October, so we spent the session analyzing the questions he had gotten wrong. He was able to answer nearly all the questions right this time around, and he was able to explain the reasons for the answers.
The student has chosen to take history as his second subject test so we started working on that today. Lots to review here, but he likes history. Also did some math 2 subject test review.
