SAT Practice Words

Are you trying to strengthen and expand your vocabulary? This is one of the most important things you can do to prepare for college and to improve your SAT scores.

This summer, why not practice a few words each week? Simply focus on two to six words at a time. You can start by memorizing their meanings. Then, as often as you can each day, work each word into your conversations with friends and parents.

After a week you will have an expanded vocabulary! You can begin with the following SAT words.

• arcane
• boon
• cathartic
• dogmatism
• egregious
• foible
