I received the following letter from a worldwide pupil:
Dear Debbie,
I’m a worldwide student whom would like to have a SAT exam. We’m pretty proficient at math, and writing, but my reading, especially critical reading, is awful! I’m going to take SAT in a so i really need your advice month! My real question is ‘ Can I improve my Critical Reading by practising a lot for a month?’ and in addition, ‘How to get good CR score without having awesome vocabulary?! (ingest consideration that I don’t have time that is much learn words).’
THANKS in advance… I absolutely need ur reply!
Month Dear Hoping to Improve in One,
YES!
Take to my 28-Day reading that is critical. The outcome have already been astounding.
Do you have the College Board’s Blue Book? Have you done it all? Or even, make use of the practice tests and do the reading sections and look up every term you don’t understand, even although you got the question right.
Remember to chart mistakes and think of a strategy that is new. Stacey Howe-Lott has a template that is great.
Also, one term: VOCAB!!!!!
Use Wordnik.com to look the words up because they show the words in context and make flashcards and training using them. And try the Direct Hits Books. They have been excellent!
Learning language is still important for the new SAT, even though there is no more a sentence completion part. Understanding vocabulary in context is crucial for answering the reading passage que
