SAT Courses at Option, DUBAI

 

Option SAT, Dubai, trains for the SAT prep using innovative class plans that focus on subject skill building. The SAT test spans across three areas for each of which Option has evolved training modules that are interesting and effective.

The Reading Section assesses a student’s comprehension and reasoning skills.Our SAT trainers are particular about encouraging timed reading exercises in the class to ensure that the student learns to read ‘smartly,’ keeping the stress of time and comprehension in mind.

The Writing and Language Section evaluates a student’s sharp observation and editing skills in the context of extended prose passages across a range of content areas. This section gets a tad tricky since some questions require contextual connections to be made and others focus primarily on perfect punctuation and grammar skills.

The two Math Sections gauge a student’s skills for using appropriate tools strategically, searching for and making utilization of structures to do algebra and understanding the nuances of the language of the question. The fact that one Math Section allows for a calculator and the other does not is also worth dealing with in the course of training. At our SAT Preparation Dubai Centre, we take care to attend to the smallest such detail in order to deliver perfection in our classes.

The Optional Essay section will no longer be a part of the SAT test after May 2021!!!!

 Composition/SCORING of each section:

 

The Reading section – 52 Questions tested in 65 minutes

The Writing section – 44 Questions tested in 35 minutes.
Both the reading and the writing are scored together on a scale ranging from 200 to 800.

The Math Sections
20 Questions – 25 minutes without a calculator.
38 questions – 55 minutes with a calculator.
The two sections are scored on a scale ranging from 200 to 800.

Bonus!!!
This SAT promises great returns for those who put in qualitative effort. This is mostly due to the fact that the voluminous Vocabulary needed for the Old SAT is no longer required! Another relief is that in this SAT there are fewer sections, more time on average per question and no essay!!!! Moreover, there is no penalty/negative marking and so students do not hesitate to take a calculated risk.

FAQ's about NEW SAT

1Q: Are SAT Scores important?
Ans: The importance of SAT scores differs from school to school.
