<p>So ive decided (from about a month ago) to create this sat plan.
basically i will do 16 practice sat tests, and 24 practice sat writing prompts, all before the june sat. will this prepare me?</p>
<p>thats a big plan. How do u plan to manage the time to get all that done?</p>
<p>That will no doubt prepare you, but there are certain things you can do to make it easier on yourself. For example, after u take a few practice tests you should know your areas of need and then you can focus specificaly on problem areas. If you master the reading comprehenstion, try learning a vocab list. As far as writing goes, that seems a little extreme to me, but writing has always been my thing…maybe master the techniques reccomended for the writing section and then consider just reading different scholarly books. That will help you with the vocab, give you good examples to use in essays, and it will teach you good writing. Also once you begin to master these aspects, time yourself under strict conditions! (I like to give myself two minutes less while practicing). Oh and don’t rule out the May sat if you feel ready, that way you can get another crack at it if you mess up.</p>
<p>u know it very well that it will prepare u! I support OBrienUM97.</p>
<p>wow if u have time to do that then do it</p>
<p>but dont let it take over your life… and thatts what the plan entails</p>
<p>yeah. actually its not that bad. i simply take one sat per weekend broken up into parts over the two days, and one sat writing per week. ive already done about 4 of each.</p>
<p>Why wouldn’t it prepare you?</p>
<p>ya well good luck with that it will def prepare you…</p>
<p>personally i just dont have time for that lol</p>
<p>hope u ge tthe score u want</p>
<p>it sort of depends on how you do them. just going through and doing the tests probably won’t make that huge of a difference… make sure you go through all the wrong questions afterwards.</p>
<p>Honestly that might be overkill…I busted by tail really hard for the SAT and I kind of felt burnt out and so sick of the problems by test day…and I still cant bring myself to look at the blue book…however that will have to change after the act next saturday.</p>
<p>before my very very first time to take the SAT I did the:
8 blue book tests
6 barron’s tests
12 kaplan
11 practice tests (which sucked!)
3 peterson</p>
<p>and i got 1610.</p>
<p>you gave 40 tests and got 1610??? it’s really hard to believe</p>
<p>I suck in math. and my CR score isn’t exactly good.
but I did them again and after several times I got 1900…it took a little time.</p>
<p>i rather prefer a cramming prep (maybe a month and a half or let’s say two months) exluding the reading and vocab part.</p>
<p>ah well, i seem to be getting a minor increase (about 50 points) every two to three tests, so eventually i will be doing very well. right now im at around 2000-2100 for my scores.</p>
<p>If I had the time to take 16 tests, my score would certainly increase but it’s not worth it.</p>
<p>
just wondering are you in 12th grade? and how many times u take the sat’s? cuz i think i’ve seen you around here for a long time.</p>
<p>yeah, I’m a senior. And you’ve seen me here so many times because I took the SAT on every date last year and 2 more this year (not including SAT II)</p>
<p>STUCK ON 1700 - you probably did not look over your mistakes or something.</p>
<p>That is just not humanly possible.</p>
<p>One advice to all future SAT takers , use collegeboard tests for practice … ONLY!</p>
<p>use princeton, kaplan, barrons if you are bored or finished taking the SATS and want to kill time :]</p>
<p>yeah, there’s never any time during the test to look over the sections.</p>
<p>but I did look over all my mistakes in practice tests. more than once. I think I didn’t get a high enough grade because I’ve basically reached my limit. A 1900 kid will never get 2000 or more. That is not humanly possible.</p>
