Best approach for improving writing?

Test Preparation SAT Preparation
1

<p>I've taken about 6 or 7 SAT Writing Practice tests and my score is staying the same. I don't feel like I am learning anything either. What can I use to help improve my writing score and learn about everything covered on SAT Writing? I already tried sparknotes, seemed a lot easier than the actual SAT questions.</p>

<p>READ…<-That’s all I heard frm teachers so I am telling it to you. and WRITE.:/</p>

<p>Have you tried my guide?</p>

<p>I am not sure if this will work for you but "[SAT:</a> Improve SAT Score with SparkNotes: The Seven Deadly Screw-Ups](<a href="SparkNotes: Today's Most Popular Study Guides helped me improve by ~2 points. It lists and details basically all different categories of improper logical or grammatical syntax that you will come across on writing MCQs.</p>

<p>^ I believe that the OP already tried that. Here is the link to mine, by the way: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-preparation/955109-silverturtles-guide-sat-admissions-success.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-preparation/955109-silverturtles-guide-sat-admissions-success.html&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Ohh, my bad then. I thought he was referring to practice questions on Sparknotes.</p>

<p>Yeah haha. Silverturtle your guide is what I was planning on using. I wanted to ask you a few questions on it though so I could narrow down what to study.</p>

<p>I have finished reading all three “Barron’s SAT Writing Workbook”, “Barron’s SAT 2400” and “Barron’s SAT”. I raised my score from low 500s to low 600s. but it’s not improving anymore.</p>

<p>do you think I should try your (silverturtle) guide, even though I’ve already read those three Barron’s books? would it add anything to them?</p>

<p>Doctor silverturtle’s guide guarantees any reader at least a 750 on the writing portion of the SAT, no lie.</p>

10

<p>ignoring ^, how do I become a silverturtle at writing?</p>

<p>Its those oddballs tCB likes throw on every test that I get wrong.</p>

<p>If you read enough, and do enough practice tests, you shouldn’t be surprised by many of the writing questions. I also find it helpful to edit random written work (a younger sibling’s would work well). </p>

<p>The essays are just about being able to speedily apply inapplicable fancy-sounding examples to any prompt thrown at you.</p>

<p>That being said, there’s still some randomness. The first time I took the SAT, I perfected the Writing, but the second time a few questions tripped me up.</p>
