It seems like a lot of people have really helped you out so far. I’m going to be a little more specific.
You definitely have the right attitude. You definitely have the potential to score higher. Practice tests only help the people who know what to expect anyways, but need practice implementing their knowledge of the test.
You may need a tutor, but I wouldn’t reccommend it. If you do it yourself, you will learn much more comprehensively and become smart.
The key is to use your resources. You obviously have a computer or some device with internet. If you don’t know certain grammar or math rules, look them up! Read. Go online and read articles or go to the library and borrow books to read; make sure you read them as well. As you read others’ thoughts and opinions expressed clearly you’ll begin to form your own and be able to explain them in proper English. This will increase your english, essay, reading, and probably even science scores. Math is much easier truthfully. Math is something that comes with practice, repitition, and intuition. Have you ever heard of Khan Academy? Try it out for Algebra, Geometry, and Precalculus.
Good Luck!
