Great GPA but bad SAT

<p>“I’m actually considered a speed reader, however I guess I read too fast sometimes to fully understand the passage.”</p>

<p>That could put you into the “poor test-taking strategies and skills” category then. In which case, you should be readily able to improve your test scores with a bit of serious prep. Read up on Xiggi’s method. It works for any standardized exam. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-preparation/68210-xiggis-sat-prep-advice.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-preparation/68210-xiggis-sat-prep-advice.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>There is no point in speed reading if you are missing out on the concepts. Slow down, and think through the questions, and you will do better.</p>
