2100+ Goal

I really would like to get above a 2100 on the november SAT. I am a senior and took the SAT for the first time in january and received a 1590 (460CR) (600M) (530W). I then took the SAT in may after studying for only a week and received an 1850 (560CR) (690M) (600W). Both times I only got an 8 on my essay. I am looking at Binghamton, Albany, Stony Brook, Seton Hall, and Northeastern (reach). I really want to get into Northeastern and possibly be accepted into their Honors Program. I will post my journey up here for the next two months and anyone who has the same goal feel free to join me! (:

I only started prepping this week but I just purchase the SAT 2400 Book and Perfect 800 SAT Verbal books. I already am almost done with the College Board Book. I just started taking sections of a practice SAT and so far I just got an 800 on Math. Hopefully I can repeat that score on Nov. 3.

Hi! I really want to get my SAT score up to a 2100 too! I'm starting at a 1750. I just need a good study plan! I'm taking the January test and am hoping to get around a 2100!

For me, I didn't really focus on math because that wasn't my weak area. I also didn't take whole practice tests at once (not enough time) but I do suggest it. The book that I really used was the SAT 2400 Book. It really helped for the writing sentences and for the vocab. I suggest it and also if you look on sparknotes they have the 7 most common mistakes for the writing mc. I just looked those over the day before and to be honest, if my essay was good enough I think I may have gotten an 800 on the writing, but I definitely got 700+
