When a problem says 'average' it almost always means the arithmetic mean. Read carefully to check if it asks for median or mode instead.
For probability questions involving 'or,' add the probabilities and subtract the overlap: P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B).
On scatterplot problems, always read the axis labels and units before interpreting the slope or making predictions. Misreading units is a common trap.
Practice percent change problems with real numbers first. The SAT often embeds these in word problems about price increases, population changes, or survey results.
