SAT in two months

<p>This is my third time taking the SAT (WAIT! Before you start freaking out, I’m only in 8th grade. They wipe the scores from my record, so it doesn’t count).</p>

<p>First Try
M-570
CR-560
W-540
Total- 1670</p>

<p>Second Try
M-530
CR-590
W-590
Total-1710</p>

<p>Practice Test (I think these are my scores, but I’m not certain)
M-580
CR-570
W-630
Total-1780</p>

<p>I know these scores are above the average senior’s, but seeing my peers’ scores (1800-1900) make me believe I can do better. I didn’t really study that hard for the first two SATs, but this time around I really worked hard by practicing in the blue book, taking a highly recommended SAT prep class, and even practiced during school hours. So, I’m taking the test again May 4th, I believe, and my goal is somewhere between 1850-1900 (or more :D). What can I do to make sure I score the highest I can when the test rolls around?</p>

<p>Thanks a bunch :)</p>

<p>Be FAST.
SAT is easy. It is simply annoying.
Time. Work on that, work on doing everything as quick as possible.
Time yourself. Write down that time. Beat that time.
If you can solve 25 questions is 10-15 minutes CORRECTLY rather than 25 min then my friend. You have mastered the SAT.</p>

<p>I’m also an 8th grader and I have a 2240-
Since we usually are still in Algebra I or Geometry level classes, the best thing 8th graders can do is learn all the general math concepts. Writing is easy and the MC is just grammar, but practice to get better (I got a perfect 80 MC). Same with critical reading. Learn vocab too.</p>
