<p>I find it hard to read the SAT books. I have Barron's, BB, and Gruber's Math Wkbk. I have tried 'reading' them, but the information never sticks. I have thought that taking practice tests would set in stone the information, but it never does.</p>
<p>So I ask, how do you read the SAT study books in order to have the information stick in your mind?</p>
<p>I mean, the topics aren't too interesting, even if you try to make them interesting.</p>
<p>The best way to maximize your SAT score, is by taking practice tests with the Blue Book, carefully going over the answers and the mistakes you made, and then taking more tests. You don’t really need to read any books, they usually just give the usual “test strategy” tips.
Gruber’s is good for Math, but all you really need is the BB</p>
<p>I dunno. What I’m doing is I’m going through an old edition of 10 Real Sat’s for practice. They’re old since the content has been changed up, but I’ve been told the questions are relatively still of the same difficulty. I’m going through all that before I start going through the BB tests. There are outdated sections of the SAT in it, but I usually just skip those and use it to practice CR and math. </p>
<p>I ordered Gruber’s since I’m not the kind of person who can just get along with reading an online book of it. Need to have it in my hands. When I really try and learn something I write it down some place and I start underlining things with pencil. I haven’t reviewed anything much lately, I’ve just been doing practice tests and looking up advice, strats, and tricks on CC.</p>
<p>I would get a composition book, take notes, and if you have enough time, put things into your own words so that it sticks better. Or think of some way of remembering it, like visual clues.</p>
