SAT Tip of the Week
Love the BUT!
Thought-reversers - BUT, ALTHOUGH, YET, HOWEVER, etc. are KEYS to understanding the readings. Whenever you see a thought-reverser, STOP, circle the word, and underline what comes after this word. A thought-reverser changes the direction of a piece and qualifies (slightly changes) a main-idea. An answer is usually found directly following a thought-reverser.
ACT Tip of the Week

Each science passage should take, on average, only 5 minutes to complete. Instilling this 5-minute pace is essential. Time every practice section you take!
