Anything is hard, at first, without practice.

Here are a few steps to making the SAT easier:

1) Learn how the test is structured and how points are scored. This way, you know what to expect and you can enter the test with a understanding of how to reach your primary objective - a high score.

2) Practice. Do as many practice questions as possible to improve your ability to attack recurring question types and review concepts to help you attack problems that you're having trouble with.

3) Take confidence in the fact that you've put in a lot of hard work to attain a high score. Relaxing before an exam can lower your test-day jitters and allow you to perform to your highest potential.

Good luck!

Practice makes perfect.

Reiterating queen's advice, I want you to think about the first time you attempted anything - riding a bike, shooting a free-throw shot, or even trying your shoes. At first, each of these tasks seemed hard because you were unfamiliar with the rules and the instructions. With some guidance and some practice, you quickly learned to overcome obstacles and master a skill.

The same applies to the SAT. It's just one, simple test that covers Math, Critical Reading, and Writing. With some guidance (from friends, teachers, parents, tutors, etc.) and some practice (use online tools, tests, explanations, etc.), you can surely master the SAT.

It really depends on how much you practice, and what your age is.
