“I’m taking interpersonal communication, public speaking, and intro to business (as you can see I’m highly interested in business haha)”

Had you told me that you were taking, say, English composition and/or rhetoric along with a strong math class, I’d say don’t bother “studying” for the SAT.

Even the classes you’re proposing to take offer the chance to improve your critical thinking skill. That’s a big part of the SAT.

As it stands, something’s gotta give. Besides, at age fifteen I don’t think you need to be killing yourself over the SAT just yet (unless for some reason you’re running out of time to take it).


exercise
sleep
college classes
a couple decent movies
time with family or friends
time AWAY from family or friends
SAT prep


However, you haven’t told us where you stand with regard to the SAT; you haven’t told us about your college goals. What kind of SAT score do you need?

My answer could be totally different depending on those factors.
