| Last summer (June/August 07) i went to a princeton SAT class where I took my first-EVER SAT practice test. i think i got a 490 math, a 470 reading, and a 530 writing. something liek that. in march 08 i took the real SAT i got a 710 math, 730 reading, 710 writing, and i think i *may* have improved on the may SAT, but idk scores yet so we shall see. just to make it clear, it was NOT the course that really brought up my scores. conforming to the stereotype, i am asian and half-decent at math, but it's just that i wasn't really used to the type of problems/wording for math on the SAT. they only have a few tricks up their sleeves, so just learn to spot and transcend them. from the class my score mightve went up from like a 1600->1850, but mind you, it cost my parents $1100, which is completel ******** considering they spent ~$40 on a few books for me to work on over a few months and my score went up to a 2150. breaking 2000 was, and now breaking 2200 is the critical barrier for me. |
