What exactly was going on with the 430 and 390?

It seems like either:
-you were out of it that day/ time trouble

you blew off high school education

your high school sucks and you were starting from a very low base of knowledge

If you can give us some idea where you started from we could give better recommendations.

Keep in mind here that your goal is not “beat” the SAT and get into a great school you then flunk out of. You are trying to get into a school that will be on the right pace for where you are academically. If you didnt get taught much in HS for 4 years, prepping one test isnt going to fix that.
