<p>I went over my test, and I got 2 cr wrong cause I didn't completely read the answer choice. That keeps happening to me, no matter what. I have to ingrain it into my head to read the ENTIRE answer, not just the first half. I also made 2-3 careless writing mistakes....</p>
<p>I took a practice test (for the heck of it...it's been such an empty weekend), and I missed two questions which CB calls easy. Haha, just my luck... I seem to have a knack for missing only the easy parts of each exam! XD</p>
<p>I wish we all had that problem ;)</p>
<p>I actually think missing easier ones are harder than missing medium/hard ones, because <em>it's my nature</em> to gloss over the easy ones when double checking...or even when I DO bother to double check, I think my answers are correct no matter what, because HECK they're EASY, right?!</p>
<p>Guhh....I need writing improvement! I need to get down to 1-2 wrong, and I am constantly getting 6 wrong (got 6 wrong in march as well). Its a combination of careless mistakes and such....Some questions just stump me.</p>
<p>good luck. i hope u reach your goal =] i need a 2200+ for the December SAT</p>
<p>i cant believe you get days off for school before the SAT...i have a 16 page essay due 2 days before the SAT and two major tests the day before. Being from Canada sucks</p>
<p>I can't imagine being let out for the SAT... the teachers wouldn't even laugh if I asked... especially my Calc teacher.</p>
<h2>No no, I don't have off for the SAT lol, I have for the Jewish Holiday Rosh Shahana. It just coincides that they are close :)</h2>
<p>I just did a Critical Analysis of the writing questions I got wrong throughout the past 5 tests, and this is what I came up with. </p>
<p>My main errors were
1- Plural/Singular
2- Tense Errors
3- Pronoun Errors
4- No errors (lol...)
5- Has/have (can anyone explain this? When to use which one...)
6- Idiom</p>
<p>Anyone have any advice as to how to improve those errors? Those are the only ones I am getting wrong.</p>
<p>Yep, shoot for 0 wrong and you'll be closer to your goal.</p>
<p>I have
You have
He/she/it has
We have
You have
They have</p>
<p>ah, the <sarcasm> joys </sarcasm> of english conjugation</p>
<p>:0 Off to school, then back to testing.</p>
<p>Gonna take a sat soon, but atm I am reviewing vocab and writing. My next test, I hope to get max 2 writing wrong and 4 cr. ;)</p>
<p>Just took the January 2008 QAS:
Math - 6x - 650
CR - 4x - 750
Wr - 7x - 700 - 720</p>
<p>I don't know whats going on with writing. I got 4 out of the 7 wrong because I found a error that wasn't there. Anyone have any advice on as to how to find no errors? They seem to be my biggest down fall atm. On a happier note, I made my goal (almost) on CR.</p>
<p>the funny thing is that wenever i take the writing section..the third question is usually the one with no error..only 20 % of da questions have no error..idk if that helps..but just practice..that wroked for me</p>
<p>it seems that if I solve that problem, I should get high 700's.</p>
<p>^Getting 7 wrong on the grammar can still be a low 700?
Don't rely too much on the essay - I think the multiple choice is probably the most important, since if you miss 0-2 and get like an 8-10 essay it would still be a high 700.</p>
<p>Shiomi, your a grammar superstar, could you give me some tips to help me? I really need that high 700...</p>
<p>Haha, I wish I was a grammar superstar, but I've never gotten a perfect MC on my practice tests.
But good luck with the grammar, maybe you're just overworking yourself. You do a test a day right?</p>
<p>Well I dunno if it's just me, but after I do a full test simulation I feel sick of doing problems for the next two days, which is why I don't really plan on doing any practice tests on thursday or friday. Even today, I'm just doing my last practice test section by section with breaks so I don't exhaust my "testing" reserves?..</p>
<p>I don't know if this philosophy works hahah, but we'll see...</p>
<p>Yea, I am not doing any on Thursday or friday. How many do you get wrong? Do you have any advice as to what I should do over the next 2 days to improve my writing MC score?</p>
