Here are some tips for SAT/ACT preparation.
One Week Before
Gradually taper off your studying, but review areas of weakness to boost your confidence.
Eat healthy and get at least eight hours of sleep each night.
One Day Before
Don’t study. Cramming is unlikely to help.
Relax your brain so you can tackle the test with a clear mind.
Put enough gas in the car to get to the test site.
