50 High frequency SAT words: Improve SAT vocabulary
The SAT exam does not test vocabulary directly. Should you make an effort to increase your vocabulary?
The SAT exam does not test vocabulary directly. Should you make an effort to increase your vocabulary? Definitely yes! Here's why-
-The SAT Reading and Writing passages have quite a few words that stump non-native English speakers. On SAT exam day, you cannot afford to panic or be surprised. Adding a few of these words will help you understand the passages better and address the questions correctly.
-In the SAT essay section, there are points for the quality of the vocabulary used. So, if you enhance the quality and variety of words you use in the essay, you will get a higher score.
Now that you know that having a good vocabulary will help you improve your SAT score, you may be wondering how to add words to your existing vocabulary. We at Jamboree want you to spend your SAT preparation time most efficiently. So, we have gone through the SAT pattern and previous year's SAT papers to compile a list of 50 high-frequency words that appeared most on the SAT exam.

Jamboree helped me in every step of achieving admits to US-based universities. I attended Jamboree SAT classes at Pune. And I must say everything is the best in this centre. I would say joining Jamboree was the best decision the faculty is very nice and teaches with a really positive attitude and makes the lecture really interactive. Their admission counselling services were also really good and help me throughout the admission process.

When I joined Jamboree Education, I had no clear idea of where I wanted to be or exactly what I wanted to do. At the start of the year, a counselor was assigned to me and I was told that all my needs and queries would be taken care of thereafter. They really stood on their words. I now have an absolute plan for what I want to achieve in the next five years. Jamboree Education has been very helpful and motivating throughout the journey!

My admissions counselor and the entire team made my applications experience so smooth. The best characteristic of theirs was how patient and level-headed they were in handling me when I got frazzled or anxious about any aspect of my application. !

Hi, i have taken coaching for GRE at Jamboree begumpet in may 2018 in their fastrack program and have given the exam in july 2018 with a score of 326.(Q-169, V-157)
There are two things i liked very much about jamboree...one is the student teacher ratio, giving individual attention to every student, helping us analyze our strengths, weaknesses and the areas we should be working on. Their full length mock tests, materials, sectional tests guide us in the right direction. The faculty are dedicated, experienced and accessible any day anytime. The other thing is their unique strategies for Verbal section which would help us solve a question of vocab like any other question on logic without having actually to memorize a lot of words.

The classes are good for GRE .The materials what they provide is awesome. The mock tests gives hands on experience of the GRE test. They provide university short listings based on GRE score and it is definite that you get through in any two universities. They also take care of after admission process and provide smooth transition for your admit till you get into the university.
