When you’re done, you’ll be able to approach the SAT with confidence—very few questions will surprise you, and even fewer will be able to withstand your withering attacks. Stand tall, intrepid student. Destiny awaits. Updated for the New SAT This new edition of the Math Guide has been updated, rather painstakingly, to reflect the realities of the new SAT coming March 2016. This book was not rushed to market to take advantage of interest in the new exam. I took my time, and hopefully I got it right. Chapters are broken into five major sections: Techniques, Heart of Algebra, Passport to Advanced Math, Problem Solving and Data Analysis, and Additional Topics in Math. Each chapter concludes with a reference list of similar questions from official practice tests. Practice questions are designated as either “Calculator” or “No calculator.” Students will be forbidden from using their calculators for one whole section of the new SAT. Emphasis is placed on nimbleness—the ability to approach problems in multiple ways to find the one that works best. Calculator solutions and shortcuts are provided where appropriate. Join me online Readers of this book are encouraged to register as Math Guide Owners at the PWN the SAT website. There will be video solutions and other bonus content there. Signing up there will also give me a way to get in touch with you if I make book updates. See details at http://mathguide.pwnthesat.com.

Download or read book All Your Word Problems Solved written by Margo Diewald and published by . This book was released on 2018-03-31 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Word Problems. Does even thinking about solving word problems in math make you feel tense, anxious, confused, or frustrated? You're not alone. Most high school students - even ones who excel in their math classes - find word problems on the PSAT/NMSQT, SAT, and ACT tough to solve consistently and efficiently. Adult students preparing for the GMAT or GRE find word problems just as daunting as these were in high school. Most major publishers only briefly explain word problems and demonstrate simple examples in their study guides, but challenge students with very difficult practice problems. Even students in their test prep courses remain confused and lacking in confidence about how to approach word problems. All Your Word Problems Solved serves as an invaluable supplement to whichever test-specific study guide you prefer. This book will help you learn to systematically decode math word problems, set up the correct equations, organize your scratch work to "error-proof" yourself, and efficiently arrive at the right answer, every time. The strategies, approaches, techniques, and tips found in this book have been created and tested with students aged 15 to 40+ preparing for the most common standardized college and graduate admissions tests, including the GMAT, GRE, SAT, PSAT/NMSQT and ACT. In this book, you will learn a set of structured-but-flexible approaches which can be combined in different ways to solve even the hardest questions on your standardized tests. What makes this book so valuable? In the words of a GMAT student: "Clear explanation of how to organize your work and make sense of what you are actually solving for." Presentation of information is designed to accelerate your learning and improve your retention of facts, relationships, and formulas. Sample problems which demonstrate key methods progress in difficulty, so there is no huge jump between the examples and problems in the Official Guide. Refresher content and variety of examples for word problems related to concepts in Algebra 1, Algebra 2 and Geometry. You'll find out how to recognize, approach, and solve word problems of many types: linear equations, exponential growth, ratios, proportions, age problems, work-rate, distance-rate, systems of equations, mixtures, dilutions, interest, profit, percent change, complex geometric figures, probability, permutations & combinations, weighted averages, sequences, patterns, functions and symbol problems.
