| Ok, random post, I just didn't want to make a new thread.
I got a 1790 on the January SATs with maybe an hour of studying. Is aiming for a 2050+ on the June SAT realistic? | |

| Coolname -- what I read into your post is that you got your score not with "...maybe an hour of studying..." but with your innate, existing ability. If you've read the first 5-10 pages of this Xiggi Method, you have a means by which you can, three-four nights a week (with an hour or so each) over the next few months likely improve your score. So, is that "realistic?" Of course, but it is up to you and the effort you apply. | |

| Also, go to page 39 for a summary of Xiggi's method. | |

| Hello, I would like to question the accuracy of such a method as studying flash cards (large word lists).
Recently, I have half-way finished the first Word Smart book, and I would like to say how well the book lays out sentence structures on how to attain new vocabulary used in context.
Xiggi, I highly suggest you use this book in your SAT planning (or studying the mere SAT Hit parade list); for nearly every word on the SAT in March I knew from the book-proving its effectual content.
Also, I would have to say one thing. Take Focus Factor on the day of the test. Although some think that vitamin supplements do not help, I think that focus factor helped me to concentrate much more than I would have if I did not take it on the day of the test. | |

| this is kind of off topic, but i'm a student in Canada and i don't really understand how come there are so many tests for admissions and the differences between the SAT's and the SAT subject tests.
what am i supposed to take in order to get into a college in the States? | |

| I've spent about 20+ hours working through six tests in my barrons workbook. Are you saying that my time would have been a lot better spent doing the blue book tests? My library has a kaplan and PR with a few practice tests in them, I was thinking of just doing them now that I have exhausted barrons, but would you say that it would be a much better idea to work through the bluebook? | |

"Read Rocket Review. And place special emphasis on the problem:
x^2 + y^2 = A number
(x + y)^2 = Another number
xy = ?"
Example problem please? | |
