<p>Hi all. </p>
<p>I am taking the SAT this October. I have gathered around 35 SATs made by the CB. (Some Online course tests, 10 BB, Official SAT packets, couple of QAS/PSATS/OLD format SAT)
How do i use them effectively to increase my score?</p>
<p>Current score:
Reading: 550
Writing: 650
Math: 750</p>
<p>I need improvements especially on the SC on CR. Will doing practice and record the vocab help me? Thanks</p>
<p>Wow, I am super jealous of your math score, I have an 800 in cr, wanna trade? :p</p>
<p>To effectively use your practice tests, make sure you always time yourself, if you aren’t already. Also, really try to review what you missed before moving onto a new section. That’s all I can think of, and I think that’s all you need.</p>
<p>For the vocabulary section I was lucky because all of the vocab on the sat I had already learned in ap english earlier in the year. I have a really good list I used, I could upload it to scribd if you need a list, but it has like 500 words. Just really try to memorize as many as you can. I have a system I used for vocab tests, where you highlight a part of the word that will help you remember the word. For example, the word abrogate means to cancel, I highlighted the word bro, because a bro doesn’t cancel on your plans! It’s really stupid, but it helps me memorize so many words. Practice tests will help for the passage related questions, but memorizing words is way more essential than doing practice questions in my opinion. Also learn your literary terms and trust your instincts. Good Luck!</p>
<p>wow,how did you get an 800 on cr! i average a 700 on math and writing but my cr is barely 600! any tips. i agreee with the vocab trick she used, like for inundate, it has the word nun, so i imagine a flodd of nuns coming to my room.( def: to flood)</p>
<p>Another thing with practice tests is don’t just score them and walk away – go back and look through your mistakes or questions you weren’t sure about, see if they were stupid mistakes or if there’s a concept you need to review</p>
