<p>What was the biggest score increase that any of you have received on the ACT or SAT?</p>
<p>1790 —> 2020, 230 points</p>
<p>Including practice or only the official ones?
my first practice was 1520.
A year later I got 2240 on the official one.
so that’s a 720-point improvement in a year.</p>
<p>1970 to 2180 for SAT (+210)
26 to 31 for ACT (+5)</p>
<p>On my first PSAT, I didn’t practice and did pretty badly (214, would equate to 2140 on the SAT) However, I took ~5 practice tests before taking the SAT for the first time in October (2009) and received a 2340. 200 points…and with superscoring (taking the SAT more than once and taking the best composite score) I would say 300 points is not a stretch.</p>
<p>Haha well… I got a 156 on my freshman PSAT (1560 SAT) >.< and I got a 2300 on my SAT Junior year lol. So 740 increase haha.</p>
<p>^ lol that doesn’t count. we didn’t know anything when we were freshmen</p>
<p>I got a 2050 on my first SAT and 2330 this past October… 280 point increase.</p>
<p>Everyone who has had these substantial score improvements, what did you do to study before the second time? Or did you improve just from experience? I took it for the first time a few weeks ago… So I’ll find out soon!</p>
<p>1690 to 1880</p>
<p>All I did was remember to bring my glasses that time so I didn’t get a huge headache… </p>
<p>I’m taking it again in December though, so I’ll see how much studying helps.</p>
<p>Around 500 for me or so.</p>
