>I don't think any of the students I have could solve any of those problems
trust me, they can. just let them try it out and obviously dont' tell them they're considered 'hard' problems.

i've had stuyvesant students who are super smart get some of these wrong, and other students who have "learning disabilities" figure them out.

but the reason i posted that was to go over how you would solve them (as if you were my student) and then I would go over how I would solve them.

For instance, #6. You will realize that the perimeter is the same even if it was just a regular 12x10 box.

i have plenty of tricks and such. i'd first look into the types of problems you get wrong typically. you can post them here and i can take a look.

it really doesn't. that's why MENSA doesn't accept SAT scores anymore.

not sure i understand you. i don't get straight A's because i'm disorganized, can't keep up with the homework assignments, and lose points on attendance.

a standardized test, or exams in general, are my forte because it's simple. you simply study for it and that's it.

i've also been tutoring standardized tests for over 15 years and consistently bring the scores of my students up by a substantial amount, so SAT tutoring is definitely not a waste of time.

here's a screenshot a student of mine sent me when she got into harvard. tutoring definitely works, at least when i am your tutor.
