SAT Math Practice for Dummies

Thursday October 29, 2009

Look, I'm not a math genius - not by any stretch.

And really, there are few people out there who are.

Regardless, you still have to take the stupid math section on the SAT. Can you do it? Have you prepared? The next SAT test is coming up on November 7, so I sincerely hope you've done something to get yourself ready besides count all the facebook  comments you had after posting that nasty message about your ex boyfriend.

In case you're a slacker (and, no, Iwould never assume you were), but just in case you've put off studying for the math portion of the SAT until this very moment, then relax.

Go to your favorite quiet nook...pick a serene moment to begin...maybe sip on some tea or burn some incense or something...

and cram some fractions like a math tutor  is chasing you with a giant calculator.

Here's a free SAT Math practice test to get you going.

After that, you're on your own. You're the one who waited until this very moment to begin.

Slacker.
