Hello CCers. I hope all of you are having a wonderful summer so far. I am very confused on how to study effectively for the SAT in order to take the SAT in August. When I took the SAT for the first time on March 1st, I got a 1140 (570 on Reading, 570 on Math and a 6 on the essay portion) getting a 940 and a 1070 on previous PSATs. I wanted to start studying after March 1st, but then I had to study for my AP exams and was busy with homework and my extracurriculars. I desperately want to have a minimum score of a 1300, a 1350 if possible but I am quite puzzled as to how to study; I have an old SAT book (for the past SAT which scored on a 2400 scale) but it’s certainly outdated and will not give me the opportunity to study as effectively. I’d be much better off purchasing a book for the new SAT. $30 is the budget on buying supplies needed to study and a summer prep class is not a viable option due to financial reasons. Do any of you have good advice on what to do?
