Map Out the SAT Curriculum
When you begin prepping for the SAT using Mind Maps, a good starting point is to take the time to map out your curriculum. Do this for every SAT subject, class, and test. Put the title of each subject/class in the central node and then add in the sections that you are going to cover during the term.
Having this plan in place from the beginning of term is the first step in organising your SAT study properly. This plan will make the next steps in your revision easier to follow and focus on. You will have a complete overview of what needs to be covered in the months ahead.

Once you have your SAT overview in place, you need to dig deeper into the individual subjects which are featured in each node/ strand. To do this, take one subject/ topic from your overview and focus on this area by starting a new Mind Map and building out that subject.
When you do this for all sections of your subject curriculum, you will have a comprehensive set of study notes you can refer to at any time. This will also allow you to understand your curriculum in much greater detail than before.
