Avoid These Mistakes In Information and Ideas!

Theme Misinterpretation

It is also common to answer the questions without interpreting the theme of the passage.

‍

Rushing Through

The most common mistake students have historically made on the paper-SAT is to panic about the time crunch and rush through questions.

Evidence Mismatching

Watch out for inferences that are too broad or extreme, as correct answers must be directly supported by specific textual evidence rather than assumptions.
