Synopsis

This brand-new book was written primarily for parents and teachers of high school students who have normal to above-average intelligence, but who also suffer from learning difficulties that stem from a variety of different causes. Just a few among those possible difficulties are attention-deficit disorder, difficulties in perception, motor control problems, and even severe anxiety attacks related to test-taking situations. The author presents a strategic study program and test-taking plan specifically designed to help such students prepare for the SAT college entrance test. Separate chapters outline test-taking strategies for the SAT's Critical Reading, Writing, and Maths sections, and include advice on how to apply each strategy. Appendices cover lists of prefixes, suffixes, and roots for students to master as they bring their vocabulary up to SAT levels; plus a list of maths terms and definitions to help them understand the SAT Maths section questions and answer them correctly.
