[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, if you want to see maximum improvement in SAT math scores, consider hiring a tutor throughout 10th grade to make sure chemistry and math (usually algebra 2) is learned the right way. There are a significant number of SAT math topics covered in both of those courses. In chemistry, Unit conversions, percentages, ratios, data interpretation, etc. are learned throughout the year. Most Algebra 2 courses include a review of algebra 1 concepts in addition to algebra 2 concepts. These courses represent a little over half of the SAT math questions. Consider starting “SAT Prep” summer after 10th grade: this helps students reinforce material and prepare them for precalculus in addition to getting them ready for the SAT. The students I’ve done this with have often seen 100-200 point score improvements in math alone from 10th to 11th grade PSAT. For verbal, READ. Especially over the summer. [/quote]
