<p>I REALLY REALLY want to break 2100 but i nothing seems to work. I have taken a prep class, tutored, and self studied and still got below a 2100. Should i retake in November for a superscore of a 2100?</p>
<p>Depends what schools you’re shooting for</p>
<p>i am shooting for top universities, ranks around 20-35</p>
<p>it also depends what is stopping you from getting there.
are you running out of time or do not understand the question?
those could be big factors</p>
<p>I had tutoring sessions and i ended up getting exactly a 2100 on the June test. My first test i took…diagnostic test at tutoring center…i got a 1780. Between then and the June test, which was about 3 month, i took the full test 2 more times and each time it got slightly better. I think that you should just really pump up your vocab. I don;'t know if you saw it but someone posted a thread about how to get scores 650+ you have to work on vocab and vocab is extremely important.</p>

<p>i’m in the same position…i got 1930 on the june test (first time)..and i really want to break 2100 too…this summer is gonna be hell.</p>
<p>Lets break it down by section:</p>
<p>Well, math is easily studyable, I really don’t see why anyone shouldn’t get 800 if they are in some calculus level class already. or precalculus (extended alg II).</p>
<p>Your grammar section can improve if you memorize all the rules. Which is hard for people like me.</p>
<p>For critical reading, I just bought a CR book, and did the two tests. It helps you get to know what the nuances and what the test wants you to put as an answer.</p>
<p>hope that helps. I think it works best if you concentrate on certain sections you want to improve on, rather than trying to get 30 poitns here, 30 points there, etc.</p>
<p>I had 2 hour tutoring sessions one on one once a week. And during that time i would work on pace and stuff. I went through like at least 8 tests on my own at home for homework and would always ask questions when i got one wrong.
Whenever i practiced a section it would always be timed so i got really used to the pace of the test. Also i had sessions at 7:45 in the morning. I got used to testing early in the morning.
also i took 3 full length practice tests. One around every three weeks. and then one 3 days before the actual test. And i started reading more. And making vocab flash cards and stuff. I would try and use new words and stuff when talking to my parents because that is the best way to remember. To actually use the words.
I think overall though…i just became soo familiar with the test that i was ready for most of the things collegeboard threw at me. Obviously not all…but enough to get a 2100.</p>
