THE DAY OF THE SAT

Eat Breakfast
It's a proven fact that breakfast increases your concentration, mood, and memory. Eat a healthy breakfast on the morning of the SAT. Many former test takers have complained about the distraction caused by grumbling stomachs--both their own and those of other students--so save yourself any embarrassment or discomfort by eating a breakfast and taking a snack.

Follow Your Normal Routine
If you wake up every morning and watch MTV while you get ready for school, don't stop on account of the SAT! Similarly, if you've never had a cup of coffee, don't start on the morning of the test. Consistency in your routine will allow you to focus on your primary objective – performing well on the test.

Dress in Layers
The temperature of the room can have an effect on your SAT result. If you are too hot or too cold, you may have trouble concentrating. To help control the temperature, dress in layers; peel down to a t-shirt if you're warm or add a sweatshirt if you're cold.

Arrive on Time
Arrive at the test center by at least 7:45 am. Don't forget to bring all of the following:

Your SAT Admission Ticket
Photo ID
Two No. 2 pencils
A fresh eraser
A calculator with new batteries
A snack
A bottle of water
