Who is willing to study SAT test with me? we can help each other and improve our scores!?
I am a girl of 17 years old, I am preparing for SAT, I think if two or more friends competing and discussing about the problems or may correcting essay of each other will be more efficient. So please contact me if you agree with me!

Hi there. IMHO I think a study group can be good for the emotional support, BUT I think you do it, you need to do it very carefully. Here are some things you need to look out for:
1) You must still study and practice no matter what they do. If they do not show up for your scheduled meeting, you might get caught up slacking off, too. Don’t slack off!
2) Friends can be a distraction. If one of them is goofing off, then that can make others goof off. If one of them is feeling particularly whiny, then they can make the others whiny. Goofing off and complaining can be fun, but it’s really a waste of time. Your sole goal should be to study and DO IT WELL. Don’t let your friends cheat you or each other by messing around.
3) You will still need to study a lot on your own. After all, on the SAT, no one will be there to offer you assistance.
That’s all. I hope I am not being too harsh. I am just very passionate about prepping for the SAT and really believe that it is a test of your own will and perseverance.
