SAT Questions

I have a Dell laptop if that helps. It worked before but when I brought it back from my friends house I couldn’t get it to connect back to Xbox live.

which is the best book to laern SAT1 ?

I take sat classes but the math isn’t really helping. I need a great SAT preparation math book that can really make me understand geometry concepts. I looked at some books but want some advice from other people. i really only need to know everything from A-Z in geometry, the rest of the math I’m okay with. Thanks in advance!

I want a laptop for christmas but i don’t exactly which one to ask for… i want to use it for gaming and of course school work… which one should i buy… i would like it to be under the price of 00.00!!

anyone who’s taken the princeton review course for the SAT–how much improvement did you see in your score? did anyone see an improvement of 200 points?

if you haven’t taken the Princeton Review course, then which course did you take for the SAT (if any) and do you recommend it?

thank you

I’m taking the SAT in November of this year (2009). Is there really that significant of a difference in tests if I use 2007 prep guides?

sylvan? the princeton review? kaplan? other?

what’s the best option for an online course?
i want to maximize my score as much as i can

I’m doing my science fair and I was testing to see what state of a laptop uses the least energy. After my experiments I found out that when playing video games (I used Diablo II Lord of Destruction for my science fair) used the most power which lead to >> Graphics card.

Now I’m having troubles finding out ‘why’ graphics card is theinternal PC component that uses the most power, please help
Thanks.

I am trying to figure out which SAT prep book will help me out the most. I’ve asked this question before and different people said that I should try Barron’s, Kaplan, and Princeton Review. I really do not know which one I should choose. I have already tried the collegeboard’s blue book but that did not help me very much. Many people say to go with Barron’s because it "overprepares" you. Can you help me out? If you suggest a prep book, can you please explain why I should choose that one? Thank You!!:)

I bought a laptop for college and have been using it strictly for college, along with paying 300$ a month in college payments. Please tell me if I attended school this year that it’s tax deductible?
It would be nice to hear since becoming a college student has become very taxing on my pocket.

I’m out of school now (1+ years, so no school counselor to consult with this), hoping to go to college next year, but before I do that I want to take the ACT and SAT because I know whatever I scored before (which I don’t even know) is a lot less than I could score if I actually studied for them.

— The next testing sessions are October 10th. Is this enough time in general to prepare and study? Unfortunately I am one of those people who have forgotten 90%+ of things they learned in school (math, specifically) so I’d essentially need to be practically relearning everything. I’m not a speedy learner, but I am quite capable when I apply – but who knows, really..

— So what book(s) should I get? If I understand it right, there seems to be yearly "editions" of prep help books out.. so what’s a good one or does that not matter and is any prep book, as long as it isn’t ancient, good enough?

— And for the likes of me who has essentially forgotten how to do stuff (I never took calculus, for example.. and my science background is pretty much nonexistent) or were never taught certain things at all.. are these books even any help? Will they even matter?

i just took the SATs in the beginning of december and got a 1120 (added up math and critical reading)

i need at least a 1270 for a scholarship (FL bright futures)

will the CB online course help me bump up my score to like a 1300?

feedback on this course or any other SAT prep course will be fully appreciated
thanks

Hey im a senior and yea i know why now its late well i took my SAT this year during junior year and got a 1050 overall just for trying without any studying but i need but i need a minimum of 1530 to get into my state college so i need to raiser my scores mostly reading and math
i need to know what books are great to study
i know there is the Princeton review cracking the SAT i know it should be
but wat else are there?
is tutorfox.com SAT guide any good?

how much would you pay a college student with good qualifications to tutor your child for the psat/sat, per hour?

I’ve recently borrowed a 2004-2005 version from the library, since I couldn’t find any more recent versions. Is it still good for this year’s test?

I’m not sure if the SAT Subject Tests have changed since 2005.

Also, is it worth it to buy a test prep book, a more recent version, even though I only have two weeks left to prepare?
AP Biology isn’t offered at my school. =/, so I took biology accelerated (honors, but graded on 4.0 scale).

i am a junior in high school, and all these people i know are taking sat prep courses. my parents don’t think i need one because i’ve always been a very good standardized test taker, i did very well on the psat sophomore year, and they’re a lot of money for something i can really do by myself. when people take a prep course what do they learn, how many practice tests do they take, what do they work on, etc? should i even bother to follow what a prep course would do if i just have a few trouble areas (the writing multiple choice and the harder math problems)?

Hi, i have a used laptop it was working ok but this morning it sent me a message that says "PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable" and another one that it says "PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel Boot Agent", what should i do? I bought this pc used and do not have any installation or recover disk and I’m not able to get into safe mode or anything, the worst part is that i have extremely important documents that i need to recover, can some body help me please?

I’m a sophomore in high school who is very determined to do well in the PSAT and the SAT. I just wanted to know the best books/study guides available for the PSAT and SAT preparations. Please tell me which ones are good and whether you were able to get good SAT/PSAT scores with the book.

By the way, it would be appriciated if you are detailed. Thank you.

which sat course is good/ bad in singapore, studyworks, High Q, SAT Zone? did u go to any of them, or any other suggestion for a class course?

I’m planning on taking the SAT for the second time. The first time didn’t go so hot; I only scored a 1340, which is absolutely terrible.. but at that time, I didn’t take it seriously either. I really want to score much higher this time, for it will probably be my last go.

I want to know… how did you prepare for your SAT? Ideally, I’d love to get over a 2000 but that is so unrealistic. I’ll settle for a 1600… or heck; a 1500. Do you know of any useful sites, hints, tips, tricks to do well on the SAT? Any information you have would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

I have no formal tutoring experience, however I have help students before in Math. I am in the Essex county area and not far from Newark Penn Station. I am in my 4th yr. at Rutgers University. My classes are twice a week for 3hrs each, for 5 weeks total. I’ve look at numerous tutoring agencies and they are beyond expensive, and there are not that many tutoring services in Essex county, so that might be to my advantage. When I took the SAT I scored 650 out of 800 for the math my first time. I only allow a maximum of 6 students per class, so I can give individual attention but at the same time not put so much pressure on one child. Does this sound like it would be worth /hr. or should I make this negotiable?

Anybody have this book? If I know the word I can save on the online course. thanks!
