Description

This course provides everything you need to know to do well on the SAT Math Sections. Included are techniques for Math subject areas (Algebera, Geometry, Statistics, Probability, etc.), recognizing typically right and typically wrong answers, identifying questions types, planning your pacing, and understanding the structure and scoring scheme of the Math sections. You will be able to follow along through video lectures, content quizzes, and downloadable handouts.

The course will examine Structure, Pacing and then take a look at the different Strategies available to you to tackle the different questions on the test. Then, the course will go into depth with the Math subject areas that are tested on the SAT. It will cover Algebra concepts, such as Systems of Equations and Factoring, Geometry concepts, such as Area and Perimeter and Trigonometry, Coordinate Geometry concepts, such as Functions and Graphing Inqualities, Probablity concepts, such as Combined Probability and Ratios, Statistics concepts, such as Average and Standard Deviation, and Arithemtic concepts, such as Roots, Exponents, and Imaginary numbers.

Included are 50+ Math exercises, quizzes, math handouts for reference, and in depth video lectures that will guide you through each strategy, concept and subject area.

This course is a comprehenseive SAT Math course designed for beginners, but is also useful for more advanced students, with lectures about common difficult questions types on the test and unique strategies that will help with pacing and accuracy.

Who this course is for:

Students at the beginning or near the beginning of their SAT Math prep
