SAT Questions

I have to take bridge courses, because I’m coming form a totally different background. So far reviews all all the city colleges have mediocre and mixed reviews. And I have not taken the GRE, so at this time I cannot apply to schools such as Columbia and NYU.
So are there any suggestions or experiences to [...]

I’ve taken about 3 CS courses in my life and a few calculus classes. The instructor from my C++ class said I could get a masters degree in 2-2.5 years. I haven’t taken any CS courses for about 4 years, however. I want to go to a U.C. I don’t think I’m going to do [...]

i really need help. I know there was this site that had old questions from real SATs, and it had math, history, language arts, and i think science. Does anyone know that site?? Plz help me.
thanks, and have a great new year

Hey I will be a new university this year and need a laptop for school.
My current idea is to buy a small, light laptop for in-class/school use and keep a separate bigger monitor + keyboard/mouse in my dorm and hook up the laptop to those via a dock.

I was thinking between a subnotebook (netbook) at a tiny 8.9 inches or a 12.1 inch laptop. The 8.9 is ultralight but the keyboard is not full size and therefore not comfortable for long typing, while the 12.1 is bigger/heavier but has more power, RAM, memory full keyboard etc.

All my classes are geography (non-science) and I don’t use a computer for much more than Word, Powerpoint, internet and music.
So would you be able to tell me which laptop would you recommend. Would the subnotebook (tiny 8.9 inch) be too small to act as my main computer, and from your experience is a non-full size keyboard (the subnotebook has a 95% size keyboard) too uncomfortable to use?

Thanks for your help!

Im trying to look for websites, besides the corporate websites of ACT and SAT, that will help me enhance in my studies. I need free tutor websites, or websites that have high school level worksheets, etc. Any websites that have tutorials, or help improving ones understanding in the core areas of high school studies (math, social studies, science, and lit. ) would help. Have any good suggestions, on free websites?

most books teaches you about the exam’s strategy, how to solve its questions, what kind of questions you expect and stuff like that and that’s what I don’t want.
I want a book that is really helpfull, I’m a little weak at science and I’m looking for a book that gives me some useful knowlege about science, a book that has almost everything I need to know to get a good grade in the exam, please help.

Hi, I live in the UK and am seriously considering going to college in the US. I know I will have to take the SATs and was wondering:
a. How do they compare to A-Levels? I need to take Maths II and a science SAT for the places I’m interested in. How do these compare to AS level sciences and maths? I have looked on the collegeboard website but it is hard to judge from the limited number of questions.
b. What (if any) study guides people would recommend? — for the reasoning SAT as well as the subject tests.

I would really appreciate answers from people in the UK who have taken the SATs particularly Maths II, Physics or chemistry and studied these saubjects at A-level. But any opinions from people who’ve taken the tests would be great. Thanks =)

I’m not much familiar with the procedures of SAT. And, I’m not an American resident. So, I have this doubt.

@ Are Physics & Chemistry there for the exam ?
@ Or is it just Maths ?
@ Why the hell are they checking our language skills too much when we are looking for Engineering and pure science-oriented learning ?

P.S: I don’t believe that one needs to critically analyse Shakespearean poetry to become an engineer. Thats awkward.

plus I’m an international students and our schools and way of teaching is much different than the US. in the US you have preparation centres everywhere even in schools I guess. here the book is my only sourse, btw I’m taking the SAT because I’m planning to study in the US.

I know this is not the right place to put this question but I couldn’t get a good answer in other categories.

I need to know if there are any science based questions on the SAT. I know that there are Math, English, and Critical Reading, but are there any specific to biology, physics, etc.?
