<p>here im back!
i was thinking to post something like this after i get my oct results lol.
here it is!
Well okay i started off with 1430 in oct 2007. after that i took tutoring classes, for like 6 months, heck all the $$ wasted, it didn't help at all. i got a 1800 in may,THE PRODUCT OF USING NONCB MATERIALS. after that i quit tutor,and came to this site! i discovered many beneficial tips in regards to studying, discard those damn princeton rev, barrons, and kaplan. at this stage,i already knew most of the grammar rules. so i started prepping throughout the summer. at first i did the bluebook, using xiggi's method. untimed, i spent more time going over my answers than the time i spent on solving them. on reading sections,i spent even more time,scrutinizing the passage. i would do the passage and its Q's . and wait till nx day, and re read, re do the Q, then check my finalized answers to make sure that i get full understanding of the passage. i used grammatix technique by the way =P
after a while u can reason out things,u can see that wrong answers are so ridiculously wrong. vocabs, mm,i spent like 2 months back in nov 2007 doing them. i did a pretty good job on retaining them; i used word smart I and II by the way. people here recommend direct hits or something. anyway just go with direct hits.
WR- mmm i cant say much about this,i always get 4ish wrong on practice,but just pick up rocketreview,know the rules, WR will be really easy,except for some tricky Qs.
essay idk go find methods for this.
M- mmm, there is only so much to learn for the math part lol i didn't have trouble except for timing and pacing myself.
post here if u want details on some specific part.</p>
<p>i got a 2070 for oct sat- lower than expected, retaking dec.
i wanna see how far i can go.
700 POINTS + ??</p>
