Best way to improve math?

<p>I really need to improve my math score..On my PSATs in tenth grade (I'm in eleventh) i got a 520 on math, and I started studying for the March SAT in the beginning of January. On my first practice SAT math I got a 500-540, and on the last one I took my score actually WENT DOWN to a 450-490 (I have no idea how I could have gone down so much).</p>

<p>I really don't seem to be getting better no matter what I do (I'm using Barrons: How to Prepare for the SATs..it's the only practice book I have...)</p>

<p>I really want to get a 600+..So HOW do I do it?</p>

<p>What is it that's tripping you up? Is it concepts? Or the way questions are worded? Something else?</p>

<p>Try to see which questions you are missing so you can pinpoint your problem. If it is an eclectic (SAT vocab alrriiiight) group of questions, then you know you have to practice everything. You might want to pay careful attention in math class starting now. As for the prep books, try the blue book (Official SAT Study Guide) because I think it has a lengthy section on math concepts.</p>
