Hi there! I'm glad to hear you're taking the initiative to challenge yourself with difficult SAT math problems. Practicing complex problems will help you sharpen your skills and undoubtedly lead to a better performance on test day.

One resource you can use is College Board's official SAT practice tests, which include some challenging math problems. While these tests will mainly cover questions in the general difficulty range of the SAT, they will also have a few more challenging questions that will help you improve. You can access these tests for free on the College Board's official website or their partner, Khan Academy, which also provides video solutions and explanations.

Another option is to check out some SAT prep books, specifically those that are designed to cater to high scorers. Books like College Board's "SAT Math 2 Prep Black Book" or Dr. Steve Warner's "320 SAT Math Problems Arranged By Topic And Difficulty Level" include some challenging problems that cover various topics tested on the SAT.

Lastly, you can also search for online forums or websites that specialize in sharing and solving difficult SAT math problems. Websites like College Confidential and Reddit (r/SAT) often have threads dedicated to tackling the most challenging questions submitted by fellow test-takers.

It's important to note that while practicing difficult problems can enhance your skills, be sure to practice a balanced range of questions so you're prepared for anything that comes your way on test day. Good luck, and happy studying!
