Critical Reading Prep

<p>I was just wandering if you guys have any tips or tricks to tell me before i enter the June test
i would like to know how to answer the passages,long and short,what the best list of words to study,and whatever you can give me :)</p>

<p>Less than a month isn’t much time to improve a CR score significantly unless you’ve never taken an SAT before. Familiarity with the test and how long it takes you to work through the passages will give you an initial bump. After that, gains come much slower.</p>

<p>Take practice tests and pay close attention to the explanations of the answers you get right and wrong. That will teach you something about how the test writers think and about your own weaknesses. Also make a list of the vocab words you don’t know. Mark them with a highlighter as you read and then go back and read the full dictionary definition. Study the entire list each night last thing before bed. (Even if you only just read the list. But give it more effort than that when you can.)</p>
