SAT Vocab - Fun and Easy to Method to Memorize

While studying for this exam, I noticed that memorizing the vocabulary was the most difficult task for me. Although memorizing itself isn't hard, it definitely is time consuming and boring. However, I discovered a fun study way to help me memorize these words from a SAT prep book. As I put these words into my own context, I realized it was easier to pick up on the vocab. So, I decided to type my idea out, and hopefully, I can keep you entertained with this!!

Nicole was always dogmatic about finding it alright to live in the rustic grasslands alone, then why had she started meticulously thinking over her actions?

She wrapped herself tighter in her blanket and scrupulously listened. Her heart stopped beating as she thought she heard the door creek. Capriciously, it became arduous to breath. She felt the ominous air around her.

Nicole painstakingly thought again. In a moment, she became an advocate believing that nothing was there. However, she was still fastidious not to synthesize any noise... She knew someone was there. Although she was in the rural, she wasn't alone at all.

Suddenly, Nicole heard the kitchen window shatter and a moment later, she saw a figure dashing to the forest. She shivered.

She was not alone....
