Sorry to all those with disappointment from the June SAT.
My S20 got a 1090 in May on the SAT and so he is currently doing an in-person SAT prep course at school through Kaplan. But his first practice test last week was only a 1010 and then today he only got a 1030. So I’m not sure how much the class is helping (he’s in it for 3 hours a day). He will be re-taking the SAT in August and we really wanted him to get to 1240 (required for WUE tuition at UN Reno), but at this point we’ll be surprised if he beats his 1090 from May. The 1090 should be OK for the 3 Cal States he wants to apply to since they are less competitive and he has a good GPA (3.66 UW). He is worried he won’t have any option but community college, which we have said is fine, but not what he wants.
He was near tears when he came home today and just felt very defeated and frustrated. I’m not sure what else to tell him aside from practicing online for the next 6 weeks. He has access to the Kaplan online system for another 90 days and then also the Khan online website through College Board. He is scoring better in the English than Math, and it’s almost like he’s forgotten a lot of his earlier Algebra. He was in Stats this past year which is not that helpful for the SAT.
