🚀  Solve Hard SAT Math Questions, FAST
﻿
🌟Tired of breezing through module one but running out of time in module two? The SAT's built-in calculator hacks can shave your answering time down on some of the HARDEST math questions by up to 90%!! Tackle all Hard questions from Module two with a systematic approach.
﻿
✅ Fundamentals: Never used Desmos? Rarely use calculators? We'll cover the first steps with plenty of practice and time for questions.
﻿
✅ Applicable Hacks: We'll use all "Hard" College-board problems that show up regularly on the SAT (except for 1 or 2 intro problems to get started). You will use these skills in the real world
﻿
✅ Streamlined Practice: I'll walk you through the best methods with enough time to answer any questions. Afterwards we'll have a Quizizz game where we can compete to solve questions quickly and accurately. The faster you know how to use Desmos, the less time you'll spend on each question.
﻿
✅ Short Series: We won't go over any more sessions than we have to and will finish before the June SAT!
﻿
✅ BONUS: Alternate Timing: If you can't make one of the Monday Sessions, we'll meet again herehttps://schoolhouse.world/series/41220?ref=share-buttonon Friday to cover what you missed!
﻿
📝 Notes: 
1. You should have a general understanding of SAT math questions, but since we are focusing solely on Desmos, don't worry about already having a high score.
2. There may be one additional (optional) session on strategies for other calculators such as the TI-NSPIRE CX II CAS and other models. DM me or write in the notes if you are interested and which calculator you would like to cover.
