Session Details

About

This session is designed for ambitious learners who are aiming to master the Geometry and Trigonometry Hard Questions from the SAT Math section. We will dive into the hardest questions the SAT offers for Geometry and Trigonometry, tackling them through interactive discussions, detailed strategies, and efficient problem-solving techniques. The focus will be on boosting your confidence with these advanced questions, sharpening your mathematical thinking, and ensuring you’re fully prepared for the toughest problems on the test.

What We’ll Cover:

# Advanced math questions from the official Digital SAT question bank, focusing exclusively on the hard difficulty level.
# Strategies, shortcuts, and tips to solve problems quickly and accurately under test conditions.
# In-depth breakdowns of challenging problems, including alternative methods to approach them.
# Opportunities to engage in discussions, share your approach to problems and ask questions in real-time.

Expectations for Learners:

# This session is intended for advanced learners who have scored at least 600+ on any official Digital SAT or the Bluebook practice test. If you haven't taken any practice test yet, but feel confident in your math skills, you're welcome to join.
# Since this is an advanced session, we won’t cover foundational concepts or theories. The sessions will focus solely on problem-solving, so it’s important that you come with a solid understanding of the core SAT math topics.
# Active participation is highly encouraged! Don’t hesitate to ask questions or engage in discussions, even if others seem to be doing well. Your questions are essential for your learning, and they will benefit others too.

Materials Required:

# Notebook or rough paper and a pen: These will be essential for solving problems and jotting down important notes during the sessions.
# Physical calculator (optional, but recommended) or access to Desmos: You’ll need these for solving problems more efficiently during the sessions. Desmos, as the SAT-provided tool, will be the primary calculator used in sessions.

Important Notes for learners with low scores:

# Although this session is mainly intended for advanced learners, but those with scores below 600 are still welcome to join if they feel up for the challenge. However, please keep in mind that the questions discussed in this session are significantly harder than the typical questions you receive at your level. As a result, you may feel overwhelmed if you’re not yet fully acquainted with the foundational concepts.
# Moreover, you might feel like the sessions are moving too quickly, and that I'm not giving you enough time to think or solve the questions, or that I'm not explaining the foundational concepts in enough detail. It's not that I'm intentionally going fast, but rather, you may not be ready to tackle these advanced concepts yet. If you join the sessions without being fully prepared, you may find yourself struggling while others seem to follow along easily. You might end up asking very basic questions about foundational concepts, which isn't a problem for me to explain. However, most of the other learners are at an advanced level, and if I spend too much time on basic explanations, they may feel frustrated or bored because the session is designed for higher-level learners.

If I notice that your questions are very basic or that you're not at the same level as the rest of the group, I may have to ignore your questions—not because I don’t want to help, but because I need to keep the session balanced and fair for everyone. The other learners are here to solve advanced problems, and if I spend too much time on foundational concepts, it won’t be fair to them.

So, if you decide to join this session despite not being fully prepared for the advanced material, please understand that you’re doing so at your own risk. I won’t be responsible if it negatively affects your score, discourages you, or makes you feel like the SAT is harder than it is. It’s your choice, but just be aware of the challenges.
# If you feel that you’re not quite ready for this level of difficulty, I encourage you to focus on building a solid understanding of the foundational SAT math concepts before joining. You may wish to attend foundational-level bootcamps or study these concepts on your own before returning for the advanced content.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
By joining this session, you’ll challenge yourself with the hardest questions the SAT has to offer, ensuring that you’re well-prepared to handle anything that comes your way on test day. Get ready to level up your math skills and aim for that perfect score!
