With a few exceptions, if you know the word, you will probably be able to answer the question correctly. Thus, it is crucial that you improve your vocabulary. Even if you have a strong vocabulary, you will still encounter unfamiliar words on the SAT.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMany students write off questions, which contain words, they don't recognize. This is a mistake. This book introduces numerous techniques that decode unfamiliar words and prod your memory of words you only half-remember. With these techniques, you will often be able to squeeze out enough meaning from an unfamiliar word to answer a question correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNevertheless, don't rely on just these techniques--you must study word lists. Obviously, you cannot attempt to memorize the dictionary, and you don't need to. The SAT tests a surprisingly limited number of words, and this book has 4000 prime candidates. Granted, memorizing a list of words is rather dry, but it is probably the most effective way of improving your performance on the verbal section.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAll the words you need for success on the SAT \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFeatures: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e* 4000 Words defined\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e* Word Analysis section\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e* Sentence Completion section\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e* 200 Prefixes, Roots, and Suffixes\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e* Concise, practical definitions \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nova Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/07\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781889057798\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.33d","brand":"Jeff Kolby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36670000332956,"sku":"9781889057798","price":11.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_5bf6abfc-5e86-4923-9ef5-8165a2f58932.jpg?v=1603921591","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/sat-4000-the-4000-words-essential-for-the-sat-9781889057798","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
