Description

A simple course of test prep for the MAT can dramatically improve your score. The MAT is not an IQ test. You can prepare for it.

In this course, we'll review how the Miller Analogies Test (MAT) is structured, the historical facts you need to understand, and the types of analogies you'll see on test day. You'll spend an hour reviewing engaging videos about how identifying the "pivot term" can be the key to effectively unpacking MAT analogies. Then, you'll learn how to build a study plan using common MAT prep material.

This short course is intended to accelerate your MAT preparation process. We recommend preparing for the MAT by following a 12-step process:

  1. Read all official MAT prep materials provided by Pearson:

    1. The MAT Study Guide PDF

    2. MAT Test-Taking Strategies PDF

  2. Establish a target score based on the requirements of the graduate program to which you are applying.

  3. Take an initial official diagnostic practice test (again, provided by Pearson) to establish a baseline score

  4. Watch the videos associated with this course

  5. Build a study plan using the results of your practice test in step 2 (see lecture 13)

  6. Spend at least 5 (ideally 10+) hours studying on your own, focused on understand the MAT, reviewing strategies, and understanding the types of content on the exam (both from an analogical relationship perspective, and content perspective)

  7. Take another official practice test from Pearson

  8. Go back and review select videos from this course that cover analogy types with which you are still struggling

  9. Spend at least another ~15 hours studying by taking unofficial practice test from the Barron's book and reviewing the results and missed problems, ensuring you understand what you are missing and why

  10. Go back and review the videos from this course, or consider private tutoring, if you are having trouble understanding what you are missing and why

  11. Take a final official practice test and review the results, going back to step 8 if you are not happy with your score relative to the requirements of the graduate school program to which you are applying

  12. Get some rest, eat a good breakfast, and remember to breath and stay confident on exam day.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone whose target or current graduate school program requires or encourages a student to take the Miller Analogies Test.
