Series Details
About
In this series, we'll cover every topic of math that you'll need to know in the Digital SAT and practice SAT-level, if not harder questions to get you ready for your SAT! I went from a 600 on my first test to a 800 on December 2nd within just 2 months following this study plan and would love to share it with the SWH community!
Here's how the series & sessions will be structured:
Each week will have 2 75-minute long sessions. In each session, we will spend the first 40~ minutes practicing and learning concepts and practice a mix of easy and hard questions on that topic.
The next 20-30 minutes will involve a timed test that we will take on the topic.
And any remaining time will be for asking questions/going over the mini-test.
In the middle of the series, we'll have a "mid-term" test that goes over everything we've covered so far and at the end of the series, we'll have a "final" test to make sure we all improved and clear up any last-minute final doubts.
I'll also host office hour sessions periodically incase you have any questions/want to go over any specific problems.
Sessions will be taught mainly through slideshows; I will have a google doc with all the presentation links you guys will have access to.
The goal for this series is to take you guys through the same method I used to help me improve fast on Math. This series is for the Digital SAT.
Hope to see everyone there!

About the Tutor

Hey everyone, I'm Pranav, a junior from Virginia! I've loved math and programming since middle school, so why not tutor them? If you don't find me binge-watching YouTube, then you'll find me out on a volleyball or tennis court (my 2 favorite sports!). I hope I'll get the chance to meet you guys in some of my sessions! Take a look at my programming portfolio: https://pranavkonjeti.com

SAT Math
Final test day!
We'll take two modules worth of math; an easier module and a harder module to simulate the digital SAT.
We'll also have the same timing on the SAT.
We'll go over any of the harder problems/any questions you had on our final test.
I'll also take any final questions before the March 9th SAT.
