<p>i took the sat twice and got 2030 the first time and 2200 second time
Well now iam half way through the admission process and now realize my grave mistake
Just a small advice to the millions of SAT takers</p>
<p>take that sat twice as every college (big or small, ivy league or unknown) supersores
But dont take it more than twice</p>
<p>first attempt: study just for maths dont study fro CR and Writing (might be you can brush up a bit).SAT maths is really easy and wioth a month of sole SAT prep you can get 750+ for sure</p>
<p>second attempt: focus only on CR and writing leave out the math componet.also give more importance to CR as college gives priority only to CR+math </p>
<p>i think this is the best way to beat the SAT`S and it releives stress.Also writing section is almost insignificant and pay least attention to it.Though you may focus on ur essay</p>
<p>i was an ass and studied for all 3 sections and ended up with MATH 800writing 800 and CR 600. f**k it</p>
<p>Not every college superscores. The UC system considers the highest single sitting of the exam. There are a few other schools that do not superscore.</p>
<p>Colleges vary in how they regard the writing section. I don’t think it’s correct to say that it is “almost insignificant.” Prospective students might want to check with their target schools about how much weight is given to the writing section.</p>
<p>I’m not so sure your plan would increase scores, or relieve stress, for all test takens. Is there really much benefit to slacking on one section at a time? </p>
<p>There have been many posts about how often to take the SAT. If a student is confident his score will rise on a third sitting there’s no reason to avoid it.</p>
<p>I agree with MD_Mom. And studying for one section per exam is silly. Colleges will sure to take notice in the weirdness. And writing is important!! Northwestern for one requires the writing section particularly.</p>
