Is there any hope for me?

Long story short, ever since I found this site I stared in awe at how godly people are able to score 2000+ with little to no prep and this was before I even had an account; thinking how I could easily ace the SAT I took the May 5, 2012 sat last year when I was a junior and scored a measly 1260 composite score and ever since then I vowed to score up to 2000 on the sat to be competitive with my graduation class of 2013.

I prep long and hard last summer (self studied) am now a senior and, took the Nov 3, 2012 SAT to see how much I would have improved on the second sitting needless, to say I gotten an average of 1500 composite score on the sat. And when I saw that score I was completely broken down how dismal all my efforts had been in vain.

The current breakdown of my score stand as it is:

May 5, 2012

cr:430
m:390 <— lol
wr:440

essay:7

November 3, 2012

cr:470
math:500
wr:530

essay:10

Resources currently:

Specialized books
I got these after the Nov 3 Sat
Grubers Math Sat
Grubers Critical reading

Grubers writing

Mcgraw Sat 2013 (little bit done)
Princeotn review 2012 (pretty much finished)
Princeton review 11 practice test (halfway done)
sparknotes (have read seven deadly screw-ups)
collegeboard question of the day app (iphone) (I do this everyday)
Bluebook 2009 (almost done with 2 sections left)
“Karen Dillard’s” SAT prep course ( I didn’t find it very helpful)

I also pretty much read all the helpful strategies this cite has to offer.
I will be sitting my final SAT on Dec 1, 2012 and will push forward one last time for a 2000 on the SAT hopefully but, I will be equally satisfy if it is a 1800.

So I’m asking does anyone think I will be able to get a 2000 on the SAT on the Dec 1, 2012 SAT? I know this will be a difficult feat but the satisfaction will be rewarding. And how should I go about utilizing these prep books I have. Usually I do one section at a time then review my answers afterwards but then when I do another section I get a different problem wrong for math. And How does one strategically nail the Critical reading section. This has always been my biggest problem I reading the passages look at the question then the answer choices and pick the answer and get it wrong. Is there a magic trick to get the passage based questions right?
