i think if you go to the ssat website there is a link for a decent amount of practice questions but its not in a test format or anything.

if you have the princeton review book… in the first chapter there are two long lists of words. choose one, make flash cards, and memorize it.

also memorize the prefixes and roots

when i started studying for the ssat back in july i had a 49 percentile on the practice test for verbal

on the most recent test i was able to get it up to 89!

big tip: don’t guess on a word because you sort of know what it means. also take advantage of not having to answer all the questions. if you look hard enough and find the page that gives you the percentiles, they tell you how many questions you should try and answer.

good luck!
