<p>I missed a couple problems in Math (December Test) and they were ALL in Geometry :(</p>
<p>I guess I'm not as good in Geometry, but is there a book (other than Gruber's) which will help me do better in Geometry?</p>
<p>Yes, I do remember during the test that I wasn't 100% sure on the really HARD geometry problems -- so it wasn't careless mistakes.</p>
<p>bump! 10 char</p>
<p>I don't think so. The 'hard' geometry on the SAT is not really hard. You should think more carefully on the problem and you will find it similar to another. If you give me a problem I'll solve it for you to show you how easy it is.</p>
<p>Boyan is right. The Geometry on the SAT is not so much about proofs or postulates, perse, which is what Geometry taught in SCHOOL is about. Gruber's is good, but the Geometry on the SAT really just gets getting used to, you know? There are just simple little tricks and the like that can get one through. :) Good move with Gruber's I heard it's a solid way to prep.</p>

Actually, whenever the question is something like "which of the following 5 choices is the length of AC?" it's pretty much the same thought process as a proof, with the difference that you don't have to write all your reasoning down. The reason is that you can't be 100% of the answer unless you have proved it (although, admittedly, process of elimination has great potential).</p>
