It's not enough to be good at Math or Physics (And if you aren't, don't worry. There's hope!). I can tell you that nothing I have learned in class since middle school is helpful on the SAT. I scored a perfect 800 on the official SAT Math because I specifically studied "SAT Math", which is a totally different animal. Fortunately for you, the problems are not actually that complicated. The College Board can only test material that every high school junior in the country has seen. So this ties their hands considerably. Just like in the Writing section, the list of rules you need to know in the Math section is both finite and manageable. Mostly it boils down to the formulas you learned (in theory) back in algebra and geometry. Here's the snag- you probably won't have enough time to solve all the problems in the same way that you would in your algebra and geometry classes. Some questions REQUIRE you to use the multiple choice answers or strategically fabricate values for particular variables. If you don't know this is coming or how to spot these types of questions, then you most likely won't figure it out in the minute you're given for each problem.
