I made this site a long time ago. I really haven't updated it much but if anyone is interested...take a look.
I will not be answering questions or anything, since I really don't care much about the SAT anymore and its been over a year since I took it but here is the link. http://www.satprogs.com
if it helps, I did get a near perfect score on the new SAT and an 800 in MATH...and many other people who have utilized the tips and programs on this site have achieved 750+ scores in the math section.
There are no guarantees to this, but its a resource at your disposal...so you might as well take a look and decide if it is for you. Enjoy and good luck in your future endeavors with the SAT>>>

The password for the zip file is "satunlock"
... I am going to be on vacation so I will not be responding to password requests via email for a while.

Is it safe? I don't want to get a virus! Does it tell you good hints?

Well as a precaution to not infect my home computer with a virus, I clicked on the "ONE-CLICK INSTALL ZIP FILE" from school, but it didn't seem to download anything-- it just displayed stuff on the same page.

I can guarantee that it is safe....go ahead scan it or whatever. Its a resource at your disposal and many people have downloaded this and used this and have been successful. You can sue me if there is a virus and yes it is perfectly legal to use this on the SAT.

is the zip file that you must download. All other individual program links do not work as that created bandwith issues for me in the past. Read the math page for instructions...its actually quite simple.

It must have taken you a really long time to come up with these programs. I am amazed...will help many people get better scores. However, I would rather not cheat. I want to test my knowledge while taking a test, not a calculator's

^ It's noble of you to think that way, but it really isn't cheating. The College Board is well aware of the capabilities of advanced calculators such as the TI-89, and since they even endorse the use of such a calculator for the SAT, it is obviously legitimate.
Perhaps a test that prohibited the use of such a calculator would be a more accurate indicator of test takers' math abilities, but since the test does allow a graphing calculator (and any programs it has), you are simply putting yourself at a distinct disadvantage, rather than being righteous, by refraining from using one.

I have TI 89 titanium and I used it on the SATs but not that extensively. I think learning how to use it and the programs would take much more time than actually studying.

Um, seriously, you are my hero. I wish I had had this when I was taking the SAT math. It would've saved me lots of heartache.
