There is one thing that nearly every high school junior and senior stresses about: the SAT. Yes, the SAT Reasoning Test is something that most students take to better their chances for college admissions, as schools look at these numbers and put students on a national scale. With the test on such a high pedestal, students are looking for the best way to prepare themselves for this grueling test.
And now with SAT prep in such high demand, innovative ways to prepare for the SAT are appearing left and right. From video games (Technology: The New Way to Study?) to comic books, to online programs, it seems as if there is nothing more prep companies could concoct to help high school students.
Yet people seem to always find one more, thus the latest invention in SAT prep: Defining Twilight. Defining Twilight, the workbook edition of the Meyer's Twilight, allows students to read the book with the key SAT vocabulary words indexed. This gives students the chance to read the word in context, make a guess on what the definition of the word is, and then read the actual definition. There are also drills and quizzes in the book for students to practice the words they are learning and be able to put them to use.
