<p>I took several practice tests for the SAT and a certain weakness I seem to have is the section with all the grammar. Apparently I correct them the way they’re spoken, and that’s a no-no. Are there any books I can get that would increase my grammar skills for the SAT? I’ve tried one or two books but it’s still pretty tough . . . it seems as if grammar is supposed to be something that should be built up slowly over time.</p>
<p>Yeah, it’s hard to find a fast formula for grammar. For me, grammar is my best subject on the SAT behind critical reading, but just try to remember the basics. Look online or at a book store for books specifically on SAT grammar.</p>
<p>Thanks. Any book titles you would recommend? It would help a lot.</p>

<p>Work through it steadily and make sure you read all their tips. Works wonders!
Grammar is by far the easiest section to improve, so it’s good actually, that it’s your weakness! (As opposed to CR and math, which are harder and take more tiiiime)</p>

<p>Strunk & White’s “Elements of Style” is probably the gold standard on how to write.</p>
<p>You can ask me any question about grammar or punctuation and will be able to adress it with a 100% accurancy.</p>
<p>What makes you so confident mark? :P</p>

A-san, I have studied punctuation and grammar extensively for the act and sat exams. I actually memorized punctuation rules and I am well acquainted with grammar. Although raw grammar is not really rested on the sat, I would be glad to help if someone needs help.</p>
<p>Do you need a comma after the word rules >.>. I may be wrong but I just felt like saying that :D.</p>
<p>nice mark.
Thanks for the offer btw, I might definitely need help, since grammar is my weakest part of the test as well. Though it would be nice to know how you learned it so well so I may do the same. Like, did you just focus on the big blue book? Or did you read other books and other methods to be so good at grammar?</p>
<p>A comma separates two independent clauses followed by a conjunction (and). Yes, I should have used a comma after the word rules. When writing on these posts, I tend to overlook punctuation sometimes.( Just like you did when you forgot to add a question mark after your question, gyros.) Sorry if I seemed inconsistent.</p>
<p>But I never claimed I was good at grammar. In fact i think i suck at it except for memorizing the ones for the SAT.</p>
