How do i avoid stupid mistakes in math?

<p>I always make stupid mistakes in math and I really want an 800. On the last practice test I made 1 stupid mistake on each section. I divide by the wrong number, and especially making stupid mistakes with area of triangle and circle.</p>

<p>The article is a little more focused towards AMC/AIME exams, but many of the tips also apply to SAT and ACT.</p>
