Need Some Advice on Memorizing Vocabulary

Test Preparation SAT Preparation

<p>Hi Guys,</p>

<p>I am going to take the SAT this May, and I really need some help studying vocabulary. What are some things that you guys do that help you with memorizing vocabulary? Previously, I read through each page of the Princeton Review WORD SMART book. My approach was obviously incorrect upon reflection, but I really wanted to squeeze in as many words as I can. Now that I identified what is wrong with my approach, I am looking for ways to effectively memorize the words as quickly as possible yet retain them for a longer period of time so that I can still use them even after the SAT.</p>

<p>Thanks for all your help fellow CollegeConfidential'ers</p>

I’m also taking the SAT in May and the vocab part (other than the essay) is pretty much the only part which I have trouble atm overcoming. Would like to see some feedback on this too.</p>

<p>Do the flash card thing and memorize at least 20 new words a day !! It worked for me :)</p>

5

<p>Find word groupings, groups of words commonly used on the SAT with the same meaning. For insistence, clich</p>

<p>Doing a lot of practice CRs helps a lot too.</p>
