<p>Can someone please share the tips in the SAT two English sections?i get problem with them and they are even discouraging me.Please i need help in them</p>
<p>I’m not exactly sure what your asking. If you need assistance with the writing multiple choice section of the SAT, I advise purchasing Erica Meltzer’s Ultimate Guide to SAT Grammar.
Amazon book: <a href=“http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Guide-SAT-Grammar-ebook/dp/B007TN3TUE/ref=la_B00D5BRLG2_1_7?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1407058385&sr=1-7”>http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Guide-SAT-Grammar-ebook/dp/B007TN3TUE/ref=la_B00D5BRLG2_1_7?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1407058385&sr=1-7</a>

<p>If your talking about the SAT II Subject tests then you can find a prep book for that.

<p>i mean the SAT I critical reading section.i’m very weak in it and i want a book that can really help me improve.</p>
<p>i meant the two english sections on the SAT1 ie. both critical reading and writing skills</p>
<p>The first link I posted helps with the writing section. The only way to improve on the CR section IMO is to practice a lot of problems and check over your answers. Also, purchase Direct Hits Volumes 1 & 2 to help with the sentence completion questions. </p>
<p>First and foremost, USE THE BLUE BOOK - it’s the best book out there for official practice tests right from the test publisher.</p>
<p>Critical Reading - Brush up on vocab with Direct Hits and/or Quizlet/flashcards. These vocab questions are easily preventable mistakes as long as you master the vocab. For passage-based questions, try to first go through a couple tests without timing yourself. Take all the time you need, but try to get all the questions right. As you improve your accuracy, go back to timed tests and gradually work on timing.</p>
<p>Writing - Most sentences can be corrected by the way they sound. If something doesn’t sound right, it probably isn’t. That being said, I must warn you that it’s easy to second guess even “no errors” once you get into the 700s. As for the essay, use literature, history, current events, etc. but oftentimes, just using people gets you to that 10. It helps to brainstorm a list of examples organized by literature, history, people and current events, with attributes/themes associated with each example before the test. Make sure to learn this list, so that you are less likely to have writer’s block on test day (after all, you only have 25 minutes). Also, study the format of typical College Board essays and derive your own formula based on that. That way, you could write a crappy essay on one of those bad writing days, but still get a 10 (trust me, I’ve been there).</p>
<p>Here are some study resources that I have gathered from my own personal experience and through skimming these forums:</p>
<p>CR:
-Vocab: Direct Hits (book), SAT Vocab Cartoons (book), Quizlet (online), Mindsnacks (found on the Apple App store), Test Your English Vocabulary (Android app - just drills you on vocab with 10 question quizzes; great for on-the-go practice rather than studying)
-Passage Practice: Untimed Blue Book tests, Erica Meltzer’s CR Guide (book)</p>
<p>Writing:
-Erica Meltzer’s Grammar Guide
-For the essay: your own list of canned examples organized by people, literature and history, with themes/attributes for each</p>
<p>Know that you don’t need all of these resources (since that would probably cost a fortune) but if I were to recommend a couple, I would say: THE BLUE BOOK (absolute necessity), Mindsnacks (found on the Apple App store - the first lesson with 20 words is free, the other 24 lessons can be bought for ~$5) and Erica Meltzer’s The Critical Reader (I haven’t personally used this but I have heard rave reviews - if you don’t want to buy her book quite yet you could check out her website, which also has Grammar resources: <a href=“http://www.thecriticalreader.com/”>A closer look at "being" - The Critical Reader).</p>
<p>Hope this helps! Good Luck! :)</p>
