^its rare when SAT studying affects that.

There should be no limit for studying for the SAT until you think you've achieved the best possible score you can. I started out at a 1800 and moved up to 2300. Its possible. I doubt studying actually cuts into EC's/Health ever, because there always is "the weekend". Just do as much as u want, and then get your top score. No matter what people say about 'lolholisticapproach', SATs are still super important, partially because 1. Your guidance counseler is going to discourage you A LOT (and as such, write so-so recs) if your SAT score is low, while they will support u heavily if u have a high one (thats how most guidance counselers work nowadays - High SAT scorers = loved)
