About

The college board always throws in a couple of mind-boggling math questions. Sometimes, we don't even know where to start. While not as frequently tested, a couple of difficult problems may appear on your test that fall underneath "Additional topics." These topics cover geometry, trigonometry, and complex numbers. Collegeboard provides you with some formulas, but you will also have to memorize some yourself. If you are aiming for a perfect score, getting these types of questions down is crucial. If you are preparing for the August SAT, reviewing and practicing these topics can boost your score by a couple of points. Our goal is to answer these questions more confidently and efficiently. There will be 6 sessions in this series. We will go over content, complete practice problems, and do a couple of Kahoots. I have a set plan, but we can always change the session to adjust to your needs. There will be a lot of content in this series so make sure to take notes. I will also publish the link to my slides/docs. Hope to see you then!

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

This series will consist of 6 sessions that are between 60-80 minutes in length. Please don't miss more than two sessions and message me if you are not able to make a session.
