SAT?

Some students and parents asked for some advice on the upcoming SAT test. Below are some links that I found -- I am not endorsing any of them, but just want to provide some links. Its also interesting to know that, "Most students are surprised to find out just how basic SAT math is: arithmetic, geometry, algebra, and a smattering of elementary logic and probability".

I would recommend taking several practice tests from some of the SAT prep books.
If you have any questions about specific problems, I will definitely be willing to discuss them with you.
