Techniques for Vocabulary

<p>Face it, no matter how many words you learn, from 10 to 10,000, those words are not guaranteed to be on the SAT exam during test day.</p>

<p>Although, one may learn the words that repeat throughout the test, it is quite difficult.</p>

<p>So if someone may, please leave the way you studied for the sentence completions, and what form of vocabulary absorption did you use. Did you memorize? Or read a lot? </p>

<p>Lastly, please leave a book, or name of a prep book or link that has a list of words that are beneficial in achieving a greater score. Thank you my acquaintances and enjoy the snow storm :D</p>

<p>make flashcards
make flashcards
then memorize flashcards
USE words in flashcards. KNOW the words. MAKE SENTENCES IN YOUR HEAD with the words
google “use <insert word=”" here=“”> in a sentence" and find your favorite site to get sentences off of (usually Yahoo answers or Ask.com and such)
put flashcards in groups of say 80 after you get to that number and it becomes a “group” that you go over every night before you go to bed. Eventually mix up different groups.</insert></p>

<p>books? Barron’s CR wkbk, Kaplan’s CR wkbk. Note that I didn’t buy them for the vocab I bought them for the reading comp; I just did the vocab b/c it was there so why not. Good things heard about direct hits.</p>
