<p>I've got a 2020 sat score (690 M, 690 W, 640 CR), but I'm looking to go up to a 2150+. I'm looking for advice to improve my math and critical reading scores especially. In math, I can consistently score a 670+, but I have trouble answering the questions correctly that would put me in the 700 range. I usually try to answer them all, just because I feel like I know math the best, but I need tips on strategy and advice to help get my score up. In critical reading, I get the hard passage questions wrong, and usually the hard sentence completion questions wrong. Is anyone in the same situation as me? Any advice would be appreciated!!</p>
<p>Same situation. My math stays at 700. CR. 550 (EW). W: 600 (DOUBLE EW).</p>
<p>I’ve tried everything… Nothing works… HELP!</p>

<p>hey dorkyelmo, here’s a cool link that helped me get my writing score up 80 points! It makes so much more sense when you have the general sat writing rules with examples in front of you. I practiced my writing questions, but it’s worth a shot to look at it. I can get my multiple choice down to only like 3 or 4 wrong. (I think I can go up to a 730+ in writing when I take it in October)</p>
<p>Read a lot, it will definitely help for SAT essays and critical reading. Also, I had the same problem with Critical Reading (could not break a 700 for the longest time on practice tests) so I bought myself a Barron’s CR book that was really helpful. Also Paterson’s makes good cram-type books for each section of the SAT. I would also invest in Sparknotes English vocab flash cards and literally just take 15 of them with you every day while you’re commuting/sitting around and just learn all the ones you don’t know.</p>
<p>what about advice to get a mid 700 on the math section? or even an 800?</p>
<p>@halfsie94: is there anything i should read that would be particularly helpful? just newspapers? penguin classics? “difficult” magazines like the economist?</p>
