About
In this series, we will practice breaking down SAT reading passages to find/understand the main ideas, as understanding the main idea is essential to doing well on the SAT Reading Section. In each session, we will work through one select SAT reading passage (paired or single passage) from one of various topics (science, pre-20th century text, history, social studies, etc). https://www.loom.com/embed/9cabd1ea97864e30a0c4917812075728?hide_owner=true&hide_share=true&hide_title=true&hideEmbedTopBar=true&hideSpeed
