How much time do I have to put in over the summer to raise my score?

<p>I was just wondering how long you guys studied over the summer to get a high SAT score.</p>

<p>It is not a matter of time, it is all about the quality.</p>

<p>Take practice tests, check your answers, learn new vocab, read as much as you can, and try to imrove your writing style.</p>

<p>As a conclusion, STUDY EFFICTIVELY.</p>

<p>I see…but do I have to read books or just anything?</p>

<p>I find long historic novels and Edgar Allan Poe’s short stories to be pretty helpful.</p>

<p>are those historic novels really effective for vocab development?
i want to read them but i fell i’m wasting my time. what are the chances of seeing the words in the examination?</p>

<p>About Edgar Allan Poe’s short stories, I find them to be very very hepful because I find many common SAT words in them especially “The Masque of the Red Death”.</p>

<p>You can also read the four SAT vocab novels that are found in the Sparknotes.</p>

<p>I have my exams in October and i’ve barely starded preparation. do you think it’s enough time?</p>

<p>EDIT: I have my exams in October and i’ve barely started preparation. do you think there’s enough time to…well, score big?</p>

<p>sorry, wasn’t really paying attention to what i was typing</p>

<p>of course its enough time…, you have like 3.5 months, and at least 1.5 months of no school.</p>

<p>Of course you have enough time for hilarious improvement if you had the will to do so</p>

<p>I signed up for the October SAT I want to do awwweeeeeeessssssooooomeeeeee… at least 1800 would be really great for me :slight_smile: I’m not asking for much, dear SAT gods.</p>
