Every test gets easier with a little preparation. It’s not just a good way to be sharp for the exam itself, it’s also a great way to build your confidence for every other part of the admissions process. As you gear up for the big day, here are a few tips and tricks to help you do your best:
First things first: Be proactive! Create a realistic study plan that carves out time to prepare for each section of the test. This way, you can avoid getting overwhelmed while being sure to give every subject the attention it deserves.
Trust us, your future self will thank you. Taking practice tests is a great way to get used to the timing and pressure you’ll encounter on exam day and identify areas where you could use improvement. Sitting down for preliminary SAT or PSAT exams are a good way to get that practice in.
There’s a reason many professional athletes review recordings of their old plays. Understanding and learning from your errors is a critical part of performing better — and avoiding those same errors — in the future.
If you study better in the company of others — or benefit from the structure and feedback that can provide — consider joining a group of like-minded individuals or enrolling in a prep course.
Self-care is no joke — especially when you’re gearing up for a big moment like this. In the weeks leading up to the exam, make sure you’re getting plenty of sleep, keeping a balanced diet and exercising regularly.
We hope you’ve found these tips both useful and inspiring. There’s more to explore, so why stop now?
