Wait until you’re going into you junior year… Start prepping a few hours a week now if you’re that eager… but your writing skills and math analysis abilities will evolve to a point where it’s more 2nd nature, coming out of 8th grade you will be a complete “noob.”

do tons of volunteering, maybe intern somewhere related to your major, and play plenty of sports/ do competitions if you’re wanting to start boosting your college app. but don’t start thinking about the SAT because if you were really ready, you wouldn’t have to ask.

also, go play in a sand box or something until you complete your sophomore year…
