This course is for anyone taking the SAT who wants to learn how to solve math questions quickly and easily, and who doesn't want to spend extra time working through long calculations.,This is NOT a replacement for learning SAT math, and it is recommended that the student should also learn the fundamentals of mathematics and understand how to solve problems. This is an additional supplementary course that helps students identify when and how they can solve problems faster, or how to skip steps once they already know how to solve them the "correct" way.,SAT test takers looking to find an extra edge on the digital SAT math section
