<p>Xiggi’s first post #2 is best.</p>
<p>When gifted son was a HS senior taking AP calculus he told me he didn’t have to study for the SAT math 2 test since they were reviewing precalc material that fall (btw- excellent AP courses at his HS, good AP test scores). He did not get as high a score as he should have. For the regular SAT and ACT we made him do some practice tests the previous spring (he had also taken both in middle school for the Midwest Talent Search). He did not have an IB program at his HS. He retook the SAT instead of the math SAT December of senior year (long story)- got 2400 (improved from months before score, had an ACT of 35). </p>
<p>Prep for the SAT? Continued reading and doing the usual HS best level (Honors/AP) courses available at your HS works. Doing practice tests (available for free online) so you are familiar with the format and getting a good night’s sleep. A bathroom trip before the test (that was a math GRE mistake- coffee…).</p>
