About
The best time to start prepping for the March SAT is this winter break!
This series is designed to teach you strategies to employ when taking the SAT Reading Test.
This series is not about taking timed practice tests, because the March SAT is still a few months away. Instead, we will work together to build your reading skills through targeted exercises, so when you do take SAT practice tests later on, you are not wasting your time.
