<p>Took a practice session and got 7 wrong. 4 of them were vocab questions, 6 of which involved some sort of vocab analyzation. Therefore, the vocab cost me about 80 points, from a 770/780 to a 700.</p>
<p>Now, what’s the fool-proof, recommended way to study vocab? I keep hearing studying off lists, studying actively (whatever that means), reading books, etc. etc. But there isn’t a unanimous agreement. What’s the deal?</p>
<p>Study ways to figure out the nature of a word. For example, prefixes, roots, latin origins, anything that can make the word more relatable to you. Then with the right amount of logical analysis you can safely deduce the correct answer ;)</p>
<p>^Do you know of any resources where I can study something like that?</p>
<p>…</p>
<p>Use Quizlet and forget about roots, which are so frequently misleading as to negate any benefit they might impart (after all, how many words have the same letters as a root without sharing its etymology? THOUSANDS).</p>
<p>Do you know of a comprehensive Quizlet list^? Or do I have to make one myself?</p>
<p>Just search for vocabulary lists! One really useful site I’ve found is [url=<a href=“http://www.freesatvocabulary.com%5DFreeSATVocabulary.com%5B/url”>http://www.freesatvocabulary.com]FreeSATVocabulary.com[/url</a>] but there are others. It has lists of vocabulary words and interactive multiple choice quizzes for each list.</p>

<p>I memorize 35 words/day and the words basically come from all the words I don’t know on real tests that I practice. I originally get 9 wrong (SC) for a test, but now I get only 3. Please tell me how you scored most of the psg Qs right I need help!</p>
<p>One book I found helpful was Princeton Review’s Word Smart. It has vocabulary, quizzes, a hit parade, suffixes, prefixes, Latin roots, and a lot more. Its nice little handy book that I used to study for the SAT. I bought it for 10 dollars but I’m sure you can find it cheaper somewhere. If you don’t want to pay for a book then the websites listed above would be good. Good luck in your search.
