the language. Preparing for the test of English as a foreign language before training for other sections is highly advised by experts in the field.

Students that are giving their SAT will need to expand their vocabulary by studying lists of common word. These words lists can be found onlineor through test companies.

Work on your weaknesses: International students have a knack for mastering the quantitative sections of the SAT in almost half the time that American Students

do, but take almost twice as long to familiarize themselves with the writing and reading sections. It is definitely a smart move to allot a considerable amount time to boosting one’s confidence in areas that one finds difficult.

Understand the test structure: Understanding the makeup of the test is crucial, especially for international students. Studentsmay be confident about the answers but may panic during the test if they are not familiar with its structure.The best way to do this is by taking practice tests and adhering to a strict time limit. This will help students master the structure of the test and feel comfortable with focusing under the time allotted for each component.

Set realistic goals: It is important to set goals during your Sat test preparation as this will give you an idea of how much effort is needed and will provide you with the necessary motivation as well.
