How to prepare for SACS?

[shadows]

So I have my BIG application sac coming up.

Even though I have been doing a lot of questions and I think I know the content considerably well, I find that I don't well in timed conditions. I make silly mistakes.

This sac is worth a lot. I am planning to do all the textbook chapter review, checkpoints and past sac papers. Anything else I should do? The more questions the better? Or is there a point where it's pointless to do excessive amount of questions?

How did you guys compile your bound ? Is it really that important, I'm  guilty of just writing up my bound book the night before.

Also do I make the most of reading time? Some people say work out some questions you can do in your head, others say to read every single question and decide what to do first, others say to skim quickly pick out the toughest to think about..... What should I do?

I am actually quite nervous.

Thats so bad so much stuff to remember. We had our analysis task last week on chapter 5 and 6 so log and cicular functions. Basically i just did question from the eg analysis question, practice sac from previous years and a couple of question from the exam. Had this all in my theory book plus jacks notes. Good luck for your sac mate

Do Past SACs from your school. See if they use Questions from the Extended Responses of the Chapter Reviews. I know my School uses Questions from the Extended Responses in the Chapter Review and just change the figures around. Even if you don't see this pattern that your school may use, do as many of these Questions as you can.

Don't worry about Multiple Choice and Short-Answer. Extended Response Questions are MOST important! Our School is also doing Chapters 1-11 from Essential. I've already had one Session of the SAC yesterday. Part 2 (Final Part) is on Friday.

Good Luck!

Well my tips are:
- Read the question carefully (1-2 times. you don't want to get an easy part wrong causing the entire answer to be wrong as well)
- wrtie out what you know or just think about the information given
- then do the question. during reading time (if you have any) you should have an idea on how you will approach the question
- then work fast but efficiently

- personally i would do short ans first then multiple choice
