The Ubiquitous 400
The SAT tests a surprisingly limited number of words. In the following lists,
you will find words that occur frequently on
the SAT. Granted, memorizing a list of words is rather dry, but it is
probably the most effective way to improve your
performance on the reading section.
As you read through the lists, mark any words that you do not know with a check
mark. Then when you read
through the list again, mark any that you do not remember with two checks.
Continue in this manner until you have
learned the words.
The first list, The Ubiquitous 400, contains words that have appeared frequently
on the SAT. Over the years, our
second list, Vocabulary 4000, has been an invaluable tool for students who have
both the time and the determination to
wade through it. Its chock-full of words that are prime candidates for
the SAT.
