<p>I just received the details of my November SAT I scores, and there seems to be a distinct pattern in the questions that I answered incorrectly--all of them are categorized as hard. </p>
<p>Now, having said that, I plan to take SAT I again in January, and I want to ask for some recommended prep books that would really do me some good and crack those those level III, categorized as hard questions in each section. I am not looking for practice tests but rather strategy/test-taking books.</p>
<p>what do you guys think would be the next logical step for me, with already a ~2100 score, to achieve 2300+?</p>
<p>do praaaaactice.</p>
<p>the only book I used was the blue book. I mean, I can give you some pointers if you'd like -- IM me or something and we'll talk. Oh, and I'm useless at helping in math, if that's a problem section -- it's just so boring. >.<</p>
<p>I think the moment thinking in terms of strategy overwhelms your basic knowledge and your intuition you'll be wasting so much time overanalyzing that you won't know what hit you. Instead of doing better because you are more savvy you'll be surprised that you actually did worse overall. Maybe your superscore may change, but not by much. Blue book is fine. Breathe deeply and work on your timing.</p>
<p>I agree that the BB is most important, and that timing is crucial, but I'd also suggest you look at the Barrons 2400 book the next time you're at Barnes and Noble: many people find it helpful in getting from high to higher scores.</p>
