<p>Hey I’m trying to improve my SAT superscore. I’m a sophomore and I got a 2200-
760 CR(yes!)
710 Math(ouch this is what killed me)—> tips on avoiding careless errors? I’m actually usually really good at math
730 Writing(meh)
I’ve got till the 28th
All tips and suggestions are welcome!
(I’m aiming for 2300 or more but as a superscore)</p>

<p>Fun fact: to improve 100 points, you probably need to make one fewer multiple choice mistake per section. Since your scores are already quite high, you’ve got your work cut out for you, but your basic approach should be the same as everyone else’s: go through the practice tests you take looking for patterns in your errors. If you identify a potential weakness, drill it until it becomes a strength. Repeat.</p>

<p>Hey there! Just wanted to let you know that what you are looking for is totally doable. I’m also a sophomore, and scored a 2250 in October. After a month of study from when I got my score to the December test, I boosted my score to a 2360.</p>

<p>If you want some help and extra tips, take a look at this:</p>

<p>Unfortunately, this has fallen to the third page of the forum. I feel that it could really help people, but most users don’t look far enough to find it.</p>

<p>Good luck, I’m going for the same goal as you and my scores are almost equal to yours. I know all the concepts, my only weakness is making mistakes. So I’m going to train myself by trying to do as many math and writing sections under the time limit without double checking, calmly and effeciently, and try to reduce my mistakes that way. I realize that on the actual SAT, I might run out of time to double check or even if I do have time, I’m too tired to do it effectively. I really gotta train myself to do it (mostly) right the first time, double checking should be a last resort. Also, for math, I’m going to highlight every question that takes me more than 10 seconds to think of how to solve the problem, as well as all my mistakes. That way I can go back to them later and make sure I know how to effectively tackle all problem types (: at this point I think that practice will be key! Good luck!</p>

<p>Edit: Oh yeah, my essay scores are also bringing me down so I’m going to make sure I know how to write a good essay next time!</p>
