<p>If someone was to study "The Official Study Guide to the SAT" book and take them again in October, how much do you anticipate a 1540 would improve by? </p>
<p>(max score you might think is reasonable after studying)</p>
<p>Dude... with a score that high, why the hell do you want to improve?</p>
<p>1540 / 2400 is not so high, it's like having a 1026 / 1600</p>
<p>I thought he was 1560/1600. Thats how crazy half the people on CC are. They want to beat a score thats already good enough haha.</p>
<p>To gman6855, there's no way of telling how much an individual person can improve with a particular test prep book. It depends entirely on how much effort you put into practicing for the test, not by how much another person improved their score...</p>
<p>^and how much prep you'd done previously, what level classes you were and will be taking. it really changes based on each person. but with a high level of preparation you could easily have a significant increase.</p>
<p>Depends on why you scored so poorly. Did you not know the material? Reviewing math/grammar can help immensely if your knowledge base is deficient.</p>
<p>I had a 1580 and went to a 1890. Just take ur time with the test and read more carefully. If you take the time to calmdown and just take the test that will add at least 100 pts right there.</p>
<p>It all depends on how bright you are to begin with. </p>
<p>If you are smart but just weren't trying or didn't study at all...I would imagine that 2000 is probably the max you could score.</p>
<p>If you aren't the sharpest tool in the shed...1750.</p>
