Getting the Edge on Test Day

Multiple-choice questions on the SAT Latin Test can be tricky, but with the right approach, you can maximize your score.

Smart Guessing

  • Eliminate obviously wrong answers first.
  • Look for clues in the question stem and passage.
  • Watch out for distractors that look similar to the correct answer.

Time Management

Pace yourself! If a question seems too tough, move on and come back later if there's time.

With practice, you'll become faster and more accurate at spotting the best answers.

Examples

  • If two answers are nearly identical, they're probably both wrong.

  • Identifying a familiar word root in a vocabulary question can help you choose the correct answer.
