What Does "No Prep" Mean?

If the SAT only had questions like “what is 3+3” then a lot of us here would be arguing that no prep is needed. I have no problem with the idea that for some individuals the SAT poses absolutely no challenges and these individuals would not need to prep.

I agree with you, but with one quibble–it does appear that it pays, even for some very high scorers, to at least understand in advance what is wanted on the essay.</p>
