No standardized test is perfect, but anyone who really know the SAT will tell you that as far as standardized tests go, it's one of the best. Why? Because it is very cleverly designed to do exactly what it claims to do: it tests a student's ability to reason. That's why colleges pay so much attention to it, and that's why such a market has developed around it. Dozens of test prep agencies claim that they can teach a student to "beat" the SAT by offering test-taking strategies that take advantage of the test's format. These strategies work, to an extent, but we at Parliament Tutors have found that the best way to prepare for the test is to start with work that strengthens the very skill the SAT examines-- analytical reasoning-- and then add to that an arsenal of strategies to maximize the student's scoring potential.
