<p>Should one tackle the hardest to improve on sections (i.e. CR) or the ones that are easiest to improve on first? My PSAT scores are 62 Math, 52 Writing, and 46 CR… for a total of 160.</p>
<p>So, I feel like I’m the strongest in math but poor in Writing and especially CR. However, based on my PSAT scores, it seems like I’m pretty much “poor” in everything. I have roughly 2 months until the October PSAT and 6 months until my first SAT. So what do you guys think I should practice the most on first? I would like to score at least a 180 on my PSAT. So, what do you guys say? Thanks.</p>
<p>I’d say that a 620 on each section is better than an 800 on Math, 540 on Writing, and 480 on Reading.</p>
<p>Keep in mind that an 1860 probably won’t be enough to qualify for National Merit Scholarships. Besides that, the only real purpose of the PSAT is to practice. Colleges aren’t going to look at PSAT scores.</p>
<p>The best answer would be to work the hardest on everything, but with the PSAT two months away, I’d focus on reading and writing. Keep in mind that the PSAT is just practice.</p>
<p>Which sections are the easiest to improve on though? Math, Writing then CR?
In writing, are the grammar skills easy to improve? What book will teach you of all of the necessary techniques?</p>
