You are right Karthik. Blue book is the most used book in the market. any
large bookstall will sell them or college board also sells Ebook I think. I
used the same book. regards,

Hey Maitreya,

It was good talking to you the other day.

Find inline answers to your questions.

How can a VI prepare for SAT?
ans. The preparation is pretty much the same for a VI and a normal student.
Preparation bookks an guides are available in the market. I personally used
the blue book (the official SAT study guide from College Board), but others
are good too. I'm pretty sure there are a few books on Bookshare too that
you can access independently.

What to do with the graphical maths questions ?
Ans. This depends on the accommodations that you're approved for. Some of
the standard accommodations include the use of a test reader, writer, time
extension, tactile diagrams etc. I used a test reader and writer, and
Collegeboard sent out a reader's script containing verbal descriptions of
the questions having diagrams.

You may also want to refer to the ETS's GRE Math Review textbook to get an
idea of the verbal descriptions on the test. SAT and GRE content coverage is
pretty similar.

All the best!
Best,
