<p>I need to get 2000 or more in SAT reasoning test, in may i got:</p>
<p>530CR
680M
590W (9 essay)</p>
<p>Please help on whats the best way to get that extra 200, I could be able to get 100 more in maths, but not sure about CR or writing.</p>
<p>Also, how do I send my highest score for each section to a college.</p>
<p>Thanks for your help :)</p>
<p>I just posted this answer, to someone's question about improving their CR score:
I got a 740 on the CR by doing the following (try it on a practice test and see if it works for you):</p>
<p>1st read the questions about the paragraphs (so you know what you are looking for, probably the most important step)
2nd skim the paragraphs for key words that could be answers
3rd, 1st answer the topical questions that are just about a single thing and not about the entire paragraph, by the time you get to the questions dealing with the entire thing you will have a general understanding of what it is about
4th choose the BEST answer, not one that is extreme (very mean, politically incorrect etc...)
5th skim through all your answers and make changes if necessary</p>
<p>to do the definition questions, cover the word and think of a word that could take it's place....</p>
<p>for the sentence completions COVER the ANSWER CHOICES! while you read the sentence and think of the first words that come to mind when you read it, then pick an answer that is closest to the word you thought of, if there aren't any words like that, try each answer in the blank space and see if it makes logical sense and use the process of elimination and then come back to it later</p>
<p>DO NOT trust your gut on the reading part, there are answers put in there specifically to DISTRACT you because at FIRST glance they look correct... </p>
<p>The SAT is about REASONING, once I realized that I did so much better on it! It's not about how much vocab you know or how fast you can read, it's about how well you can reason and eliminate incorrect answer choices to lead to the correct one...</p>
<hr>
<p>you can't choose the scores from diff sections that you want to send; when college board sends your scores to the colleges they send the scores of every SAT that you've ever written (not always a bad thing because it can show improvement)</p>
<hr>
<p>for the writing part, relearn or learn the GRAMMAR rules about nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs, prepositions, etc.... and the rules about commas, apostrophes etc... if you know those rules well, the writing should be a breeze, also pick up a SAT book that gives hints on how to do well on the writing portion (I personally like Princeton Review)</p>
<p>and do lots of practice tests!</p>
<p>I want a 1800 or more in the SAT. In May I got:</p>
<p>CR 380
M 720
W 560 (MC 53 Essay 9)</p>
<p>Is sparknotes 10 Practice Test book good for CR and Writing? I will be using the Barron's book for the math. I have all summer to raise my score 140+ points for October.</p>
<p>thanks a lot ladyconfused,</p>
<p>I need 1250 (minimum) for CR + M, but i got 1210. The result submission deadline has passed, now I have one year and 7 tries to get higher. It would be great if i get 2000 in the next 2 tries, otherwise my score history might look poor.</p>
<p>Thanks for your help, now I need to but a book with practise SAT exams (I have already done the blue book and the online course)</p>
<p>Princeton Review has a book that has ONLY practice tests, I think at least 10 total and then answers and explanations for each question on the practice test</p>
<p>Is the 10 Sparknotes Test Book any good for CR and Writing?</p>
<p>yes, because you can only do those sections and skip the math</p>
