<p>Anyone got any tips on how I can boost my SAT score?</p>
<p>Critical Reading - 740
Math - 730
Writing - 690 (8 essay)</p>
<p>You can learn to write two full pages of complete BS for a 10+.</p>
<p>^^^ I heard that’s actually how it works. If you don’t fill the 2 pages you get a bad score, I’ll work on it.</p>
<p>Read through SilverTurtles grammar guide for Writing help. I think it’s the easiest section, and be sure to nail nail the essay! </p>
<p>Go through the hardest math problems (I’m pretty sure there’s a website called "something"800 that gives you practice for those last few on the section.</p>
<p>Study DH 1&2 if your missing SC Q’s and just do practice if you are missing the reading ones.</p>
<p>Your score is great already, and with a little practice you can improve 100 points!</p>
<p>
There is an exception: if one’s handwritings are small 1.5 pages would be enough.</p>
<p>I have gone from 2160 (CR 800, M 710, W 650/7) to 2400. Here are the five things I have done to accomplish that.</p>
<p>1) Reviewing grammar in Barron’s 2400 and Silverturtle’s Guide helped, as I didn’t know certain sentence structures are considered grammatically incorrect in English. (I did not look for ambiguities at all in Identifying Sentence Errors, for instance.)
2) Learning to fill two pages instead of one - with the use of a slightly larger handwriting, an earlier start, and a classic five-paragraph structure - raised my writing score by two points to a grand total of 9. (If I could write legibly, I am sure it’d be four points 
)
3) I reviewed the areas where my Math score suffered, too - in my case, Geometry & Counting.
4) Ultimately, I learnt to be constantly focused and careful while solving Math sections. This really is not about subject matter, merely caution. (And speed. But I did not have a problem with this to begin with; you may find it worthwhile to increase your ability to get through problems quickly, though.)
5) Although I reviewed some “SAT words”, I believe I got the most out of my regular IB A2 English coursework. So if you have any reading-heavy, writing-heavy class, focus on that.</p>
<p>Obviously, I have no idea how your situation compares to mine. I am an international, non-native student; that means, for instance, that I have had slightly more Mathematics instruction than I would have had at a typical US high school. (Therefore, I did not have to review almost anything to begin with.) English always was my forte, and so was debate (which relies heavily on critical dissection of opponents’ cases, which obviously helps with CR) - but I never learnt stylistics and good writing in any course. Our backgrounds are probably vastly different. But for whatever it’s worth, those are the steps I have taken.</p>
<p>^^^ That’s really helpful lol, I’ll try that.</p>
<p>Read 10 days to a 12. Went from an 8 essay to an 11 essay which brought me from a 670 to a 750!</p>
<p>Guys, I need Tips on how to boost my scores, Critical Reading and Math to be more specific.</p>
<p>Writing - 730 (Essay: 10)
Math - 720
Critical Reading - 600</p>
<p>^ Direct Hits is IMO the best way to boost CR, along with BB practice test. With a combination of these two things I received an 800 in CR.</p>
<p>I need help in math though :-/ 680 agh! Does anyone have suggestions???</p>
<p>Grubers boosted my score a little, the book will tell you about some strategies, I honestly use like 4 out of the 20 strategies but it did did boost my score.</p>
<p>For the maths I’d say Princeton Review ( I really really enjoyed the way they present math problems) but it is more about the strategies there. Before the strategies get some Key Facts from the CollegeBoard book (I can’t imagine getting anywhere above 600 only with the strategies!)</p>
<p>it’s not just about the strategies, if u know ur weakness, Grubers provides dozens of sections where u can practice ur weaknesses (in my case that would be logical reasoning), I also heard that the SAT test makers ask Gary Grubers to help them add and verify some questions in the math section so if they ask him about questions his book is likely to be the best.</p>
