SAT
I'm thinking of doing the SAT in January or March. What I wanted to ask was, if you have done the SAT, what did you find was the best way to prepare for it? What helped you the most? Do you have any advice?
Don't link me to google or you get a 1. I know how to use google, I just want personal experience here.
Thank you. I'm sixteen and a junior, by the way.

Want to answer more questions in the Work & School category?
Maybe give some free advice about: School?
On collegeboard.com they have sample questions. I looked at them to get an idea of what the test questions would be like. I also rented these dvds off of netflix that gave tips on taking them. There isn't really much you can do to prepare other than the basic get a good night sleep, eat breakfast etc.
You only get 1/4 of a point off for a wrong answer so if you can eliminate at least one of the choices on the mulitiple choice questions take a guess.
They don't take any points off for questions left blank.
Don't spend your time actually reading the stories they give you because most of the questions are like "In lines 5-11 the character is feeling what?" and they tell you where to go, then by the time you get to the general questions about the story you have a general idea what the story is about anyway.
In the math sections the questions go from easiest to hardest and they are all worth the same points so don't waste time on the harder ones at the expense of getting the easier ones wrong.
Remember that you can take the test more than once, so if you don't do well the first time you can take it again.
