Strategy #5: Bottoms Up!
Note: this strategy may no longer be relevant in the new digital SAT, and I need to verify it empirically with the new version. But you can try it out as you work practice problems.
Some questions ask, “Which of the following...?” Frequently, these problems cannot be answered without reading through the list of choices. They are often descriptive. When the choices must be read, start with choice D, and work up. The correct answer will almost always be found in choice C or D. Very seldom must you read into choices A or B.
