SAAT study plan

Diagnose current skill level by completing a timed 40-question mixed baseline set covering number operations and algebra, then tabulate error types by category.

Build fluency with integer, fraction, decimal, and percent conversions by solving 60 mixed-format problems without a calculator.

Apply order of operations and exponent rules to simplify 40 numeric expressions, checking each against a written rule sheet.

Set up and solve linear equations and inequalities in one variable, including those with fractions and absolute value, across 30 problems.

Create a personal error log template that records problem type, mistake cause, and the corrected method for every missed item.

Graph linear equations in slope-intercept and standard form and identify slope, intercepts, and parallel or perpendicular relationships across 30 problems.

Solve systems of two linear equations by substitution and elimination, and classify systems as consistent, inconsistent, or dependent.

Translate 20 short word problems into algebraic models, define variables explicitly, and verify each solution against the original context.

Factor and expand polynomial expressions, including difference of squares and simple trinomials, over 30 items.

Write and interpret function notation, evaluating f(x) at given inputs and identifying domain restrictions for rational and radical expressions.

Solve quadratic equations by factoring, completing the square, and the quadratic formula, and interpret the discriminant across 25 problems.

Simplify radical and rational expressions, rationalizing denominators and stating excluded values.

Apply ratio, proportion, and percent-change reasoning to 25 multi-step applied problems.

Interpret exponents and scientific notation in context, converting between forms and computing with values in scientific notation.

Review week 1-2 error logs and re-solve every previously missed problem to confirm retention.

Compute perimeter, area, and volume for triangles, circles, trapezoids, prisms, cylinders, and spheres across 30 problems.

Apply the Pythagorean theorem and special right-triangle ratios to find missing lengths in 20 figures described in words.

Use angle relationships, including parallel-line transversals, vertical angles, and polygon interior-angle sums, to solve 20 problems.

Calculate coordinate-geometry quantities: distance, midpoint, and slope between points, and identify equations of lines through given points.

Convert within and between measurement systems, including unit rates and dimensional analysis, across 15 applied items.

Compute mean, median, mode, range, and standard deviation for small data sets and explain how outliers shift each measure.

Read and interpret tables, bar graphs, line graphs, and scatterplots described in text, drawing conclusions about trend and correlation.

Calculate and interpret probabilities for single and compound events, including complementary and independent events.

Distinguish sampling methods and identify sources of bias in 15 short study descriptions.

Solve counting problems using the fundamental counting principle and simple combinations.

Identify main idea, supporting detail, and author's purpose in four multi-paragraph passages of increasing length.

Distinguish fact from opinion and evaluate the strength of evidence used in two argumentative passages.

Apply context clues to infer the meaning of unfamiliar words in 20 sentences.

Summarize each passage in two sentences without copying phrasing from the source.

Practice pacing by completing a timed 25-minute reading set and recording time per question.

Correct errors in grammar, usage, and punctuation, including subject-verb agreement, pronoun reference, comma use, and modifiers, across 40 sentences.

Revise awkward or wordy sentences for clarity and concision in 20 items, preserving original meaning.

Organize paragraphs by selecting appropriate transitions and topic sentences in 15 exercises.

Apply standard written English conventions to edit a self-written 250-word response, marking each change and its rule.

Review week 6 reading errors and redo the missed question types untimed.

Complete two full-length timed practice tests under exam conditions and score each by domain.

Re-solve every missed item from both tests, tagging each error as content gap, careless error, or timing issue.

Drill the two lowest-scoring domains with 30 targeted problems each until accuracy reaches 85%.

Finalize a one-page master formula and rule sheet from your own notes for last-minute review.

Set a test-day pacing plan with target minutes per section based on your timed results.
