2.  Instilling the core values of Perseverance,
Achievement, Vibrance, and Excellent character
(PAVE) into its students, PAVE Academy Charter

scored well on several state standardized tests.
Before taking the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT),
individuals should first determine whether it is the right
standardized test for their educational goals. Taking a
timed test of both the ACT and the SAT helps students
decide what the best option is for them, and gives
them a basic idea of what the actual test is like.

3.  If students continue with taking the SAT, they
should be sure to relax the night before the test
and rely on the strategies they learned during
test prep to increase their chances of a high
score.
During the test, students should keep an eye
out for minor tricks worked into the questions.
The SAT often includes small details in its
questions that many students overlook.
Therefore, it is vital that test takers read each
question carefully, and review the question
before answering

4.  When students are very unsure of a
question’s answer, the best option is to
leave the question blank. The SAT
includes a penalty for guessing, which is
damaging to many students’ scores.
However, if students can narrow the
answers down to just a couple of
options, guessing can often be of
benefit.
