Hello guys, I am preparing for the upcoming SAT that will be in October. About 20 days later, I will start my senior year of highschool and I will have a lot of works to do. I was preparing for my SATs and the first time I took was below average. October will be my second and last chance to take the SAT. And a few days ago, I took the full lenght SAT test from College Board. My scores were Math: 640 Writing: 620 (with 10 on the essay) Reading 320. I know its a bit weird but on this practice test I just guessed almost everything. The first time I took the actual SAT, I got around 500 in Math and Writing and about 400 in Reading. I think that my practice full length test scores from College Board are not my real skills. I might get lower than that on the actual SAT.

All I want is to higher my Critical Reading section up to 600s. I know its nearly impossible for me as an international student to get a full ride to college. But I really, desperately need a full ride or else I cannot go because of the cost. My reading skills are low and my vocabs are very weak. In one section of CR, I have about 80+ vocab words that I dont know. And not just that, the reading pased passage questions are hard to me.

Any advice from highering my CR section?

Thanks
