,Vocabulary: Repeat Offenders
Welcome!
Welcome to PowerScore's free e-book featuring 700 of the most commonly occurring SAT words. These
words were first published in the PowerScore SAT Reading Bible, but we have provided them free to
our students and potential customers to help streamline your study and make the time you invest more
effective.
After each SAT administration, we compile a list of vocabulary words that appear in both Sentence
Completion and Passage-Based Reading questions and answer choices. Then we compare those words to
the words on our Repeat Offender lists. The results reveal that we consistently prepare students for 40%
to 50% of the words tested on any given SAT. This is an extremely high rate of return compared to other
similar products on the market, but we're the only company providing these words for free.
The vocabulary lists in this book were created from the analysis of over 60 previously administered
SAT and PSAT tests. The most commonly-occurring words were then sorted and organized first by their
frequency, then by their difficulty or concept. We recommend you learn the words from these lists in the
following order:
1. PowerScore's Top 200 Repeat Offenders
2. PowerScore's Top 100 Easy Repeat Offenders
3. PowerScore's Top 100 Medium Repeat Offenders
4. PowerScore's Top 100 People Repeat Offenders
5. PowerScore's Top 100 Hard Repeat Offenders
6. PowerScore's Top 100 Extreme Repeat Offenders
Only study the words that are unfamiliar to you. Once you know a word, remove it from your list to
avoid redundant studying.
These words are also available in printable form, as both a book and flash cards, on our website at www.
powerscore.com/satreadingbible.
If you have any questions about the Repeat Offenders or one of PowerScore's highly-rated courses or
publications, please do not hesitate to contact us at sat@powerscore.com.

PowerScore Strategies for Studying Vocabulary Words
1. Write out the words and their meanings.
Transferring the words and their definitions to paper helps transfer the information into your
long-term memory.
2. Write new sentences for each word.
Similarly, using the word in context helps cement its meaning.
3. Draw a picture representing the word.
Pictures can create a connection to the definition, and students who are visual learners are sure to
prefer this method of vocabulary study.
4. Type the words and definitions.
Type each word list into a word processing document or spreadsheet. Then try to define them
without looking at the definitions.
5. Write a short story using 10 or 20 vocabulary words.
Trying to create a context for each word is sure to help you remember its definition on test day.
6. Read the word aloud and say it in a sentence.
Some audio learners find it easier to learn when they hear information. Record yourself for later
playback.
7. Analyze the roots, prefixes, and suffixes.
Can you find words that have the same suffix? If so, do they mean the same thing in both
words? Learning to associate words with related words can help you solve even the toughest test
questions.
8. Group words by meaning.
Many SAT words have similar meanings. Organize your words or flashcards or your lists so
that you associate a meaning, such as “lacking money” or “friendly” with all of the words in the
group.
9. Have someone quiz you.
Ask a friend or parent to quiz you using your list or flashcards.
10. Write your own vocabulary quizzes.
Experts believe people learn best when they teach, so here is your chance! Write your own
vocabulary quizzes and then take the them a week or two later.
Everyone has unique learning styles and some methods are more efficient than
others. Select the strategy or strategies from this list that have been most
successful for you in the past. The more ways you learn the words, the more
likely you will retain the definitions.
