Test Preparation SAT Preparation

<p>I'm having a lot of trouble finishing the test in the given time. I haven't officially taken the test, but when I do it at home, I always take like 10-15 minutes extra, on one sitting I even took 30 minutes extra!</p>

<p>I'm getting better at the essay, I can finish that in the given time if I know which examples to use.</p>

<p>What kills me is the CR. I spend a lot of time just re-reading the questions and the passage because it's difficult to comprehend sometimes.</p>

<p>Does anyone have any tips on how to finish within the given time and maybe even less, but not have it take a hit at the score? Thanks</p>

<p>im not an expert at this, but i was in the position of having trouble finishing a couple months ago.</p>

<p>im not sure what happened, but after trying to finish the ACT reading in the alotted time, SAT became a breeze.</p>

<p>So basically, i think reading and practice is the only way. Annoying, but true.</p>

<p>everyone has their own way of doing the RC, however, i found my own way while taking the test. Basically i read 2 paragraph, grasp the meaning and do the quesitons pertaining to those paragraphs and then move on to the next 2 paragraphs. i think theres nothin wrong with this cuz when u read the 2 paragraphs, the questions u do next can help u analyze what you just read, and that way you wont have to grasp too much materials at one time. i usually finishes 10 minutes early. passages, try not to reread, way too time consuming. you know, it never hurts to try new way, and also as the proverb goes: practice makes better.</p>
