<p>i hate fill in the blank questions..</p>
<p>it seems like memorizing a lot of words would help to get those questions right.</p>
<p>I hate it is there any advices to it?</p>
<p>i got around 500 CR</p>
<p>but i wanna get 800.. desperately thanks guys</p>
<p>That's a hard goal to accomplish.</p>
<p>If you want an 800, memorizing, at this point and judging by your score, no offense, is going to be the only way, along with better CR skills.</p>
<p>I have a similar score. Don't take it personally.</p>
<p>one more thing : does SAT Official Questions of the day help?? I subscribed those like a year ago and my e-mail box is filled up with these questions
i wonder if it actually helps.. sometimes it seems easier than SATs but i dont know..</p>
<p>well thats what i thought.. i hate memorizing just 'words' i wish the blue book had a 'vocab list'.. yeah im glad i found someone who has similar scores.. we can do this!! (if you are taking december SAT)</p>
<p>my cr score was 500-540 at the beginning with only 300-500words memorized...
and i thought that i was done with memorizing and next step to do was improving my test-taking strategies....and i ran through tens of strategies and after 1.5months of "strategy improvment" my score had rissen just 20pts...and there were cases in which it went lower :D
you could say that 20pts is fairly good, but try memorizing words for 1.5months and compare your progress :)
in my opinion word power is the only way out, when
- you have tried "every" strategy
- you loose time in SC
- you are not so keen in reading
and especially when you are int'l
actually i recognized this fact too late to make a good improvment and i managed to get a 590 in my CR :)
anyway, will be shooting for 730+ after i finish barrons 3500</p>
<p>i dont have barrons but i have grubers 3400 .. are they any good? does anyone know if they are any good?</p>
<p>
Actually, just subscribing won't do any good. You have to actually answer the questions and check your answers.</p>
