SAT Prep

I am looking for different ways to study for the SAT but don't want my parents to have to pay a bunch of money. Are there any cheap or free study methods that people have figured out?

Khan Academy and the Princeton Review book are all great. A really good method I've found is taking frequent practice tests (ideally 1 a week) and basing your studying for that week off your weak spots.

School House and Khan Academy are the two that I used. School House offers boot camps that you can attend to improve your score or help prepare for your upcoming SATs. And take free full practice tests on Bluebook.

What Id recommend for the English section is revising from Erica Meltzers Books (Grammar & Reading) and then solving practice problems on one prep.xyz. After one week of this I ended up getting a 750 in the english section

I'd suggest sticking to practice books. I did Khan Academy, but the actual test was a lot harder. Practice books (I like Barron's) seemed closer to the actual test.

You also only have to pay once for the book so not a whole lot of money.
