Test Prep: SAT Overview
with: Prof. Vincent Selhorst-Jones
Taking the SAT is a big deal. Understanding concepts combined with test-taking tips can make the difference between getting a high score or a low
score.Professor Vincent Selhorst-Jones combines his extensive SAT-prep knowledge, acting training, and years of teaching experience to help you
understand the complexity of all things SAT. This course will walk you through every section of the exam, from Mathematics to Critical Reading and
Writing. Vincent also works through several sample sections in The Official SAT Study Guide. In addition to helping you ace the test material,
Vincent's guided lessons and proven strategies will help you tackle test anxiety by explaining the rules and the components of the test, how it is timed,
and how it is scored. Professor Selhorst-Jones has been teaching for over 8 years and double-majored in Mathematics and Theater at Pomona College,
as well as received an M.F.A. in Acting from Harvard University. Recommended supplementary material to view SAT questions featured in lesson
answer guides: The Official SAT Study Guide by the College Board.
