Isbn: 9798192003381 - the hard thinking method: sat & act (4 risultati)

PAP. Condizione: New. New Book. Shipped from UK. Established seller since 2000.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Score gains are built, not found. Most SAT and ACT prep books hand you a strategy and ask you to practice it. This one does the opposite. The gap between a good score and a great one is rarely a knowledge gap - it's a reasoning gap, the handful of high-difficulty questions per section built specifically to punish shallow pattern-matching. The Hard Thinking Method gives you 100 of exactly those problems across Math, Verbal, and Grammar & Expression, at the difficulty ceiling of both exams, and walks you through a five-step loop on every one: solve cold, commit to an answer before you know if you're right, watch the correct reasoning get rebuilt step by step, name the underlying principle in your own words, then prove you actually learned it by applying that principle to a brand-new problem you haven't seen.That last step is the one almost every prep book skips, and it's the one that matters most - a principle you can recite isn't the same as a principle you can use under pressure on test day. Built on what cognitive science calls desirable difficulty, this book is for students who already know most of the material and are looking for the last hundred or so points that separate a good score from an elite one. Solve hard. Commit. Reconstruct the reasoning. Extract the principle. Transfer it. That's the whole method, and it's on every page.…
