Sigh, I'd do the SATs as well if I could be bothered studying...  The English (Critical Reading?) section looks interesting though - the one where you have to know stuff like parallelism and language devices.  =)

Parallelism is easy >.< And I think grammar mistakes come down to a main few offenders, namely confusion of subject, and disagreement between the number (plural or singular form) or tense of certain words in the same sentence.

Well, my focus is physics at the moment, and then it'll probably shift to VCE in a few weeks. In saying that, one of my physics friends will probably motivate me to prep for the SATs... I'll probably do a few past tests, but nothing much.

okok, they take quite a few hours so it's seems like a bother (like the umat) to study for.
when are you considering doing your first? like do one a week for a few weeks prior to it or..?
