Hi guys,
I was wondering if you guys had any idea how to study for the SSAT by yourself, or if there are any good cheap alternatives to the really expensive tutors. I mainly want to focus on verbal and reading sections. Thank you! And if you haven't check out my last forums, please do, as I need advice on my application process as well.

Reading - Online videos reviewing strategies. Such strategies are most important for this section.
SSAT website practice tests, section tests, study tools, etc.
For verbal, just look up "SSAT 500 Words" or something on Quizlet. I just searched it up myself, and I found a deck that was actually made by a friend of mine who also goes to PA. I used a similar deck, however I coudn't find it. 500 words is a lot, especially if you're studying the words using the "learn" feature like me. I probably completed about a third of the deck before I took the test, so don't feel bad if you don't learn all 500... Here's the link to the one my friend made: https://quizlet.com/236123553/ssat-500-words-flash-cards/
