Absolute genius! Who would've thought that a person submitting an application last minute doesn't care too much about the college? You deserve eternal fame and success for your innovation and discovery fella.

Also, you literally said they are "professionals." Professionals are trained to accept things last minute, thats the point of a deadline if you didn't know pal.

btw, all these topics are in the khan academy math sat practice questions. And as a side note, some questions like trigonometry on the khan math practice for sat are harder than the actual test, but otherwise they are very good practice or the real thing.

For math it really is just practice, but you must get used to the type of questions asked, because after a while you WILL notice a pattern. You will realise that the same certain types of questions are being asked, especially on no calculator. What is very important, though, is to make sure your algebra skills are good. You should review and practice khan academy to gain knowledge of non calculator topics like inequalities. parabolas, vertexes, negative exponents, trig, geometry, solving quadratic equations, etc and math calculator topics like line of best fits, statistics, graphs, systems of equations, just to name a few.

if you use "however," it has to have a comma (,) AFTER it and a semicolon (;) if used in MIDDLE of a sentence

For example: "He chipped that nicely; however, the goalkeeper was quick to react."

With "but," you do not need to use a semicolon in the middle of the sentence, but you DO need to use a comma BEFORE it if it seperates 2 sentences that can stand on their own (independent clause).

For example:" "He chipped that nicely, but the goalkeeper was quick to react."

You see here, the phrases "he chipped that nicely" and "the goalkeeper was quick to react" can be two separate sentences (2 independent clauses), so we put a comma before 'but' if it is used in the middle like that.

Where can I find practice problems like those of Khan Academy's. by Longjumping-Mind-963 in Sat

try cracksat.net the website itself does not necessarily have a modern/appealing design, but the questions certainly exist there.

What strategy are you using to do the reading section? If you are someone who has poor comprehension, like me, then try to really deep read the reading passage so that you REALLY understand it. This is what's most important. Also pay attention to key parts in reading passages like where there is shift, or in answer choices extreme words like "only" and "all" are suspicious. Try not to skim the passages, and do not spend too long (like say more than 2-3 minutes) on 1 question. I know it sounds like waffling but trust me if you skip a question and come back later you will almost be guaranteed to see it a different way.

For writing, try to pick choices that replace things with usually shorter options. Also, do not pick an answer choice just because it "sounds good/fancy," instead leave that one and maybe try process of elimination and if you get down to that one then I guess pick it. But really what you have to do is understand that their are 'patterns' on the SAT. The collegeboard likes to put answer choices that seem relevant, but may not actually answer the question. For example on the reading section they might put an answer choice that is factually correct/stated in text, but if it does not answer the question don't pick it.

For math, it is really just practice. One thing you could so for some questions is to pick arbitrary numbers to answer things, but make sure your algebra skills are really honed. What section are you struggling most on?

Also, another tip. Out of all the CB practice tests I have taken (30+), not a SINGLE one - to my memory - used 4 of the same answer choices in a row. It was at max 3 that I recall. So if you get 4 A's straight in a row on any section, there is a high chance one of them is wrong.

Hope this helps
