Yet somehow, parents still expect results when they plop an SAT study book in front of their children.  \nNote to parents: Meet your children halfway.  \nApps that help teenagers study for the SAT (or, for those not living on either coast, the ACT) are improving, as traditional test-prep businesses like Princeton Review and Kaplan refine their mobile software to compete with start-ups.  \nSeveral to consider on this front include Princeton Review’s SAT Score Quest for iPad (free) and SAT Vocab Challenge for iPhone ($5), Kaplan SAT Flashcubes (free) and SAT Connect ($10 for Apple) . For math, Adapster ($10 on Apple) is designed nicely.  \nAndroid users, as usual, have fewer choices, since the best-known test-prep companies haven’t yet built apps for these devices. But Flash of Genius: SAT Vocab ($1 Android, free on Apple) has earned good marks from users, as has ACT/SAT Math Booster (Free, Android) .  \nFor those looking to sample the wares, the category’s best entry point is Kaplan’s SAT Flashcubes, which are tailored to the verbal part of the SAT. Presumably, this could also help ACT students. It’s easy to use, and the app’s interactive features make it a lot more fun to study than a static book.  \nFlashcubes will quiz users on hundreds of vocabulary words, using interactive 3-D cubes. The front presents the word, and if you flip the cube, it shows the definition. Other sides of the cube show synonyms, or a sentence that uses the word.  \nThe app tracks the student’s performance, so users can watch their progress over time, and it stores a list of incorrect responses so users can test themselves on those words only if they wish.  \n[http://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/12/technology/personaltech/12smart.html?hpw=&pagew... 5/12/2011](http://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/12/technology/personaltech/12smart.html?hpw=&pagew... 5/12/2011)  \n[New and Better Apps Help Students Study for SAT-NYTimes.com](New and Better Apps Help Students Study for SAT-NYTimes.com) Page 2 of 3  \nSAT Vocab Challenge offers a gamelike format, with four games in each round—covering antonyms, synonyms, connotation and definitions—and 20 words per game. The fastest answers gain and lose the most points.  \nSome of the app’s most puzzling moments do not come from the tests. I tried one round of all four categories (thankfully, I aced them) . When I clicked to the game stats page, to view my average response time, the page had no data to offer about the quizzes. When I returned to the main page, it told me I hadn’t yet mastered a single word.  \nVocab Challenge comes in two volumes, with each covering 250 words.  \nPrinceton Review’s SAT Score Quest for iPad is much less fun, but more helpful. It offers abbreviated practice tests for each of the SAT’s three elements—math, writing and critical reading.  \nThe tests help users diagnose possible areas of weakness, but they also offer instruction. Each question includes a tutorial on the logic behind the correct answer, and a strategy for eliminating incorrect responses.  \nSAT Connect also includes review materials as well as quizzes and diagnostic tests, and offers explanations of more than 800 questions. But SAT Connect boasts some elements that other apps lack, like a much longer list of vocabulary words (4,000), and th","cbCain66yX4YacQs","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCain66yX4YacQs","pdf",61071,"English","# Tutorials and Exercises to Help Students Prepare for the SAT\n## Note to parents\n## Vocabulary apps and interactive practice\n## Practice tests, diagnostics, and review materials\n## Math-focused apps and step-by-step help","[{\"question\":\"What math app features are highlighted for students using calculators?\",\"answer\":\"For Android, the guide highlights ACT/SAT Math Booster with calculator integration, offering shortcuts for complex equations and step-by-step instructions.
