Any General advice for first time takers?

<p>Well, I'm about to be a junior and am giving my SAT this october. I feel that it's a bit early but I'm really trying to study all summer so that I won't have to study while I am simultaneously taking 6 AP classes. I'm studying just from books, is that dumb? I'm not so sure. Also, I'm trying to memorize a lot of words, which people say is overkill. Anyways, I'm, at this point, pretty naive towards the whole SAT, any advice, on anything would be a great help:)</p>
