Exam Prep SAT/PSAT

Dulan (Michigan State U.) has taught SAT and PSAT preparation for twenty years. In this book, he offers study and test-taking strategies for students preparing for either exam. Early chapters provide an overview of the tests, discuss scoring and registration, and detail each component (math, verbal skills, critical reading, writing), including chapter tests to assess readiness. Major concepts in quantitative problem-solving and verbal skills are then covered in a review. The book also includes one pre-study diagnostic test (with scoring guide) and four post-study practice tests, each accompanied by full answer explanations. A removable card with quick review techniques is also provided. The indexes contain an SAT vocabulary list, a glossary of math terms, and a list of additional resources.
