<p>I have done a lotta reading throughout all of these posts. Is it still possible to get a high score, or even a 2400 by doin PR classes? Also, you need to get every question of the math right to get an 800 on the math?? Lastly, can you take the SAT I more than three times and have colleges look at only your top 3 scores?? oh yeah, one more thing, wats the best PSAT prep? prep for SAT??</p>
<p>You do need to get all the math questions correct to get an 800. Don't be intimidated, though. It's very possible.
If your SAT score is already above 2000, PR classes will probably not do much for you. It's better to prep using the numerous books out there, going at your own pace and working on your own weaknesses.
Prep for the PSAT isn't really necessary--but if you must, just prep for the SAT itself and you'll be doing PSAT prep in the process. Definitely buy the collegeboard Blue Book.</p>

actually one wrong USUALLY drops down the score to a 790 or less...and most ppl from experience say u need all right, but MAYBE if the test was like EXTREMLY hard they would put like a 1-2 question curve, thought i highly doubt that...</p>
<p>yeah i doubt it...there are a lot of people out there who miss none...i missed one in april and i got a 790 and felt blessed...sometimes missing 1 drops u to 760.
critical reading and writing generally have ok curves though. i missed 1 in CR and 1 in writing and nothing happened</p>
<p>Yeah, on the PSAT it is even worse... 1 wrong almost invariably is a 76 :(</p>
<p>screw the SAT, ACT all the way!</p>
<p>In january missing one on the math was an 800</p>
<p>"Yeah, on the PSAT it is even worse... 1 wrong almost invariably is a 76"</p>
<p>I only missed one math question on last year's PSAT, and I got a 77.</p>
<p>Wait? October '05? I got one wrong and got a 76... so did somebody else the year before. </p>
<p>Maybe its because the Wednesday test had a different curve.</p>
<p>Don't fret too much about getting the perfect math scores. The reality is most universities would prefer a higher CR score, so try to put more effort into the CR will go a long way.</p>
<p>ingratiate yourself with lady luck</p>
<p>Yeha I missed one and got a 77</p>
