There is no exactly right time to start SAT tutoring and not all students need SAT tutoring. The earliest point that I am aware of when many students start SAT tutoring is in the seventh grade, when above-average students may take the SAT as part of the Duke Talent Identification Program. Here is a URL where you can read about the Duke Talent Identification Program. http://www.tip.duke.edu/talent_searches/grade_7/
To participate in this program, you take the Duke qualifying test at your school and, if you do reasonably well on it, you are allowed to take the SAT in the seventh grade. At my middle school, a lot of students qualified to take the SAT in the seventh grade and the school offered an after-school tutoring program to help us get ready for the SAT. I also worked with my Mom a lot to get ready for the vocabulary test on the SAT. I did well on the SAT in the seventh grade and that gave me a lot of confidence when I faced it again in high school.
If a student is already past the seventh grade, then a good time to start SAT practice (or tutoring for those that need it) is the summer before the junior year. Intensive SAT practice at this point will help a student perform well on the PSAT, a mini-SAT administered in the fall of the student's junior year. A student who performs extremely well on the PSAT (scoring in the top one-half of one percent of PSAT test takers in the student's state) will be named a National Merit Semi-Finalist. Well over 90% of semi-finalists progress to National Merit Finalist, at which point they become eligible for many scholarships to various public universities and also to some private colleges.
Students already in their junior year who have not yet started to prepare for the SAT should do so immediately. If the student does well on SAT practice tests, it is a good idea to take the SAT no later than January of the junior year. Students who do very well on the SAT at this time won't have to take it again and can concentrate on SAT Subject Tests and AP exams. Students who need to retake the SAT (as most students do) will benefit from having already gone through the experience of taking it in their junior year.
Students who finish their junior year and still haven't started SAT preparation should undertake serious SAT preparation during the summer before their senior years. The College Board (which administers the SAT) offers a four-month subscription to its online SAT course for $69.95. This may be all the tutoring that some students need to prepare for the SAT. Of course, for those who can afford it, private SAT tutoring will undoubtedly improve scores in some cases. However, there are good and bad SAT tutors and SAT tutoring does not guarantee a better score. I found that taking SAT practice tests (available through the College Board) was one of the best ways to get ready for the SAT.

Do you start taking your birth control pill the day after your period is finished?
That depends on the pill. If you are taking a Sunday start pill you should start taking the pills the Sunday after your period starts. There should be an information sheet with your pills that will tell you when to start. Otherwise, you might try contacting the pharmacists to make sure you're using them correctly.
