How to score a perfect 2400 on the SAT and other things important for admission to Ha

[LoremIpsum]

<p>

I think people who have 2400 think they are shoo-in for Harvard and don’t take application and essays seriously.

</p>

<p>This is just wishful thinking when folks see people with 2400’s who get rejected. The Ivies expect near-perfect SATs, top class ranks, amazing essays and letters of recommendation plus significant leadership roles in both ECs and community service work. If you’re missing any of the latter, that extra 50-100 points over the next candidate on your SAT isn’t going to magically get you in.</p>

You would be mistaken if you thought practice wasn’t so important. Practice is actually VERY IMPORTANT if not crucial to improving your SAT score. If you practice and work very very very hard, you can get a 2200+. I can’t personally give you expert advice, because I am not an expert yet. I have heard that Barron’s SAT prep book is a bit harder than the real thing. From my experience, it also has an excellent word list. For most or all of the help you might need at this stage, visit the thread at the top of the SAT Preparation forum of this website. It is titled: “IMPORTANT: Everyone, read this before posting: Best of SAT Prep Forum and FAQs”</p>

<p>Good Luck.

<p>Sorry but as mentioned before I do not have any hours at community service because there is no such facility of community service, well until someone you know owns a Non Profit Which is not the case with me. So Im worried only about community service :S</p>
