Best way to prepare for the SAT?

<p>I'm taking the SAT for the second and final time October 5 and need a good score, at least an 1800 but shooting for a 2000. I've taken it once before (didnt study) and did alright but nowhere near what i need. What can I do between now and the test to increase my score a lot? First time I got a 1560 and I'm very confident I can do substantially better.</p>

<p>Go to the SAT-preparation subforum. At the top there are 2 threads on SAT study tips/programs to read.</p>

<p>Blue Book practice tests and review.</p>

<p>Yep, spend lots of time practicing and preparing yourself over the summer, it’s really the only way. :slight_smile: I’ve used Barron’s SAT practice books, and they’ve helped me out a lot.</p>

<p>From 1560 to at least 1800 by October test is very difficult when you study by yourself. I think you should try to find a tutor and go through lot of real SAT tests.</p>

<p>Go through the Official SAT Question of the Day daily, if you feel you have missed some questions, browse them by date. It is definitely a worth practice.</p>

<p>How is that difficult? It’s only a 240 point increase.</p>
