I want my SAT scores to be on par with UCLA's?

Hello everyone! currently I am taking an SAT prep class. My highest score for Critical Reading was a 570, Writing 600, and Math 550 which adds up to a 1720. Are there anything I can do to raise it up a little? The SAT prep class I'm taking hasn't help me at all! No matter how many tests I take, it still hasn't help me with the scores! Especially on Critical Reading. I'm scared to tell my parents that because its alot of money...I really need to get my scores up so that I won't have to face the wrath of my mom...What can I do??? Also this is embarassing but I'm going to be a Junior this year and will barely be taking Algebra 2!!! Help???

EDIT: I'm planning to take the test in January and I'm also aiming for a 2000.

The SAT is learnable, but it's not so learnable that raising your score from 1720 to 2000+, on top of a prep class that got you to 1720, is a reasonable goal. Maybe try the ACT?
