I’m going to take the SAT this coming nov. 7 for the first time! i bought the famous blue book and tried 1 section and got 1370 (CR:440 M:510 W:420) i’m aiming for 1600-1700 although 1800 would be the best, and i want to ace it until next month! i know its impossible but i’m willing to put all my effort into it. here is my main problems…
- always OUT OF TIME. for critical reading and writing, i always end up missing 5-8 questions. as for math i always miss 2-4 questions.
- I’m really weak at math section. i don’t understand the meaning of the question sometimes, and it confuse me wether i should use arithmetic formula or algebra formula! any advice to raise my math score? i heard that memorizing the formulas and understanding the question will enhance my score…
- Critical Reading is very very very hard for me. I have to read the passage like twice or trice to understand the passage fully. Also, the vocabulary is super hard for me. any tips…?
Prep Books i have:
︎SAT official study guide
︎Barrons sat writing workbook
︎Barrons sat math workbook (currently not using, because it’s too hard)
︎Hot words for the Sat
︎Sat unofficial word dictionary
I’m also thinking of buying Grubers for Math and Black book for strategies…
