Tackling Hard SAT Math Questions
In this workshop, we’ll enter the strange and somewhat unfamiliar world of hard SAT math questions. While hard math questions on the SAT will sometimes test challenging concepts, oftentimes the key to getting these questions right is to understand how test makers construct these questions. This workshop will dive deep into the common patterns on hard SAT math questions, how to recognize these patterns, as well as the key concepts to study in order to get these questions right.
Workshop fee: $25
Standard English Conventions Workshop
The Standard English Conventions domain of the SAT is tricky for many students. While some students can do well “sounding out” answers, they get stumped on some of the harder questions for which it may be nearly impossible to hear the right answer.
This workshop will breakdown how to approach the Standard English Convention questions with sets of grammar and punctuation rules, so that you can be confident in your answer choice. You’ll learn how to identify concepts by looking out for patterns in the answer choices, as well as the rules you can apply so you no longer have to pick an answer based on how it sounds.
Workshop fee: $25
