<p>I took practice test 2 in the Barrons Math Workbook and got a 690. I heard people on this forum before say that Barrons is ridiculously harder, but I didn't really find it that much more difficult than the blue book. Nevertheless, what do you think that would be reflective of on a college board test? I want 750+ on the real thing next sat.</p>
<p>bump please, anyone?</p>
<p>Barrons is more difficult, but I would be suprised if your score increeased that much. If I were you, I would aim for about a 720 or something a little more manageable.</p>
<p>I got consistently around that range in Barron’s and got 680 on the May test.</p>
<p>Are you serious??! This is scaring me . . . I really need 750+</p>
<p>took barron’s …test was hella hard (missed like 12)…went into the test and was shocked at how easy it was (expected 750+ like you), but ended up with a 710, which I’m not happy but okay with </p>
<p>focus on the deceptively easy questions, a couple of errors (especially the first couple) can really bring down your score quickly</p>
<p>Dontcha, you’re saying you missed 12 on the barrons tests? Well, that still is a good score for Barrons, seeing as how it’s much more difficult than the real thing. </p>
<p>Were most of the questions you missed on the real thing the easy questions at the beginning of the sections, then? Due to careless errors? I’ll be sure to watch out for those, I know what you mean on how they can be so deceptive.</p>
<p>oh at least 12, prob. more…I didn’t check exactly which ones I missed, but I imagine that the easy ones (like with basic trig functions and odd/even functions) were the ones that could’ve easily tripped me up…I say this b/c the curve is pretty nasty, so you should avoid careless errors that could really impact your score</p>
