Prioritize your Tasks

As you are all busy over the SAT-I preparations - DO NOT forget that your prime reason for doing SAT is that you would apply to US colleges/universities. So, set aside the festival happenings and concentrate on your task at hand. Use the holiday [which shall last for 5 to 8 days at best] to finalize many of your principal papers.

Please do not hesitate to mail me in the event of need.

Read and review the following.

1. Vocabulary: Word Smarts, 430 List, 100 Words, Princeton Hit Parade [downloadable]
