<p>Cur, one of they key elements of any standardized test is that they will have a bit for everyone. In turn, we are individuals and react very differently to the same problems. That is why universal advice for the SAT is so damn hard to share. That is also why I keep insisting that the best way to improve is to use -many- practices to develop a set of individual tools that will become second-nature reflexes. This set of tools can come from a multitude of sources ... a reason why I always recommend to try different books as sources. The SAT is really different from high school, where the teacher expects students to reproduce the method that is taught. </p>
<p>Again, each one should try the various options and pick the one that fits the best.</p>
