#2 KNOW the Instructions

Secret #2:

KNOW the SAT test instructions. Be MORE than fully prepared, thoroughly familar with each section and it's instructions, types of questions and their style.

Do not waste a single precision second looking back to the beginning of a section or listening to anything that the proctor has to say. This is a serious competition, so be competitive.

This is especially true on the math section where certain formulas are given, circles, triangles, etc. I have seen too many students look back to that section trying to remember the area vs. circumference of a circle.

For an exercise, practice writing down all of those from memory over and over again.

Can you outline the entire SAT exam, number of sections, time, number and types of questions? Do it
