Aiming for 2300+ in Dec, what should I get at least on the Oct SAT???

Test Preparation SAT Preparation

<p>Please don't say "as high as possible". I am a full IB diploma candidate (senior) going for all 7s on mid-term report so I am going to temporarily stop studying for SAT if my score is over the cutline. If not, then I'll continue. :P</p>

<p>Any suggestions??</p>

<p>How in the world should we know what * you *, an anonymous CC’er, will get on the SAT? </p>

<p>Have you taken practice tests? Do you have PSAT scores? Doing a practice test from the BB or from the official practice booklet will tell you volumes more than anything anyone on a webforum can.</p>

<p>You should get “at least” a 2300+ in October so you don’t have to take it again.</p>

<p>^haha… I wish I could, but I was still in the 1800s two months ago…</p>

<p>My current score range is around 2150. (R: 650 M: 780 W: 720) (Used BB2)
Perhaps high 2100s? 2200???</p>

<p>Your question doesn’t make sense.</p>

<p>^Perhaps I should’ve put an apostrophe to the word “at least”. Sorry for that.</p>

<p>A better question:
Is 2150 high enough to be improved to a 2300+ in three months considering the heavy workloads in senior year? Even 2100?? (Because my score fluctuates) Was anyone in a similar situation but did manage a 2300+?</p>

<p>You imply that anyone can simply study and get to a 2300. It doesn’t work that way. Once you go from an 1800 to a 2100, it is highly unlikely you’ll go much higher.</p>

8

<p>There is no simple equation relating initial score to final score after x hours of preparation; no one here knows whether you are capable of a 2300 or even a 2150, let alone how much preparation is necessary for you to score at a specific level.</p>

<p>Absolutely spot on. SAT isn’t like a school test or something…</p>

<p>You’re approaching this problem the wrong way. When you go into that test center, don’t think, “boy, I’m going to pull a 2200 on this test.” </p>

<p>You just go in, do what you can, and let bygones be bygones. </p>

<p>Just study as hard as you can, and at the end of the test know that you did all that you can to get your desired score.</p>

<p>^kk I’ll approach it the right way. Thanks a lot.</p>

<p>Thanks to other posters for their opinions</p>

<p>Well for me, I got a 2220 on the Oct test and then for the Nov test, I wasn’t going to take it seriously, just took it to get the 4 free score reports and was expecting something in the 2100s but I actually got 2300 so I’d say it’s possible I guess and you’d probably be wanting to be shooting in the 2200s in Oct to possibly get 2300 in Dec?</p>

<p>This is November…and near end of it, too.</p>
