<p>540......and proud.....lol</p>

<p>I scored 700 on the first and only (so far) try. I obviously lucked out on the sentence completions. For the passage-based questions, I could usually narrow each question down to 2 or 3 answer choices and guess wisely from there. I guess this is really risky, but I tried to go with the answer that ETS would come up with. I don't know... now that I think about it, my 700 came out of luck. :P</p>
<p>Krabble, you have BUMPed this post 7 times already...I think it is nearing the end.</p>
<p>I'm waiting for someone to tell me,</p>
<p>"Krabble, it's not you who is stupid, it's those tests"</p>
<p>OR</p>
<p>the answers to the next SAT I take!</p>
<p>Sometimes I dont understand how US students or Intels who are doing highschool there, score lower than me on CR. I prepared in 4 months from nothing( means 400 on CR to 660)</p>
<p>Yeah.. it pretty much puts me to shame that I suck at CR :( There are just some questions that look like it has two answers. Vocab annoys me too, but there isn't much I can do about it, except study vocab and pray that the Gods are with me that day.</p>
<p>Can't..
Let..
This..
Die..</p>
<p>KRabble, the answers will be on the next SAT I you take.</p>
<p>You just have to choose the right one. hahahaah</p>
<p>Who truly believes that it is possible to answer a "line citation" question correctly just by reading the cited line (one before and after it if necessary)?</p>
<p>u might think i'm cruel but i'm sort of tired of these things. But i'll give u my thoughts. read about two lines before or after the citations and u will have the answer.</p>
<p>Do you think I can automatically delete ANY CHOICES that mentions something that is not in those lines? I'm also afraid I might be missing the right answer by doing this.</p>
<p>If you keep worrying so much, you will get a 350....just relax, pick the answer that seems correct, and see what happens.</p>
<p>This thread should have died out a LONG time ago....</p>

<p>:confused:</p>
<p>I think the point of this forum is to find insight in trying to get the best score that we can.</p>
<p>There are just several questions that are keeping me away from the 700 mark, but they aren't necessarily all "hard" questions. In fact, I get most of the hard questions right and my mistakes will come from "medium" questions. Whether this is that important or not isn't the issue. I'm trying to find out ETS's answer.</p>
<p>P.S.- Your useless posts are worst than my bumps! :p</p>
<p>you get the medium ones wrong because you are so paranoid.....getting the hard ones right just shows you that you are capable of getting a very high score, but you are stressing out so much that you make stupid mistakes on easy questions.</p>
<p>I had a feeling someone might make the speculation.</p>
<p>The thing is, I'll get different types of questions wrong, mostly line citations and general passage questions. I still get about 1 or 2 hard questions wrong per section, and another 1 or 2 medium questions wrong (so they're about even).</p>
<p>What makes you think I'm paranoid when taking the test?</p>
<p>What's your avg. score on the crit. reading?</p>
<p>"What makes you think I'm paranoid when taking the test?"
Bumping this post 7 times</p>
<p>My last few tests were stuck at 650 to 670.</p>
<p>I'm not paranoid! :o</p>
<p>That's a perfectly respectable score...even though I know that you disagree. Just read more, study hard, and see what happens. Is this October test the last one you will be able to take?</p>
<p>i really recommend you read the questions first, and then the whole passage. i tried the "reading five lines before and after" and i was getting 740. i tried reading the whole thing on the actual test and got 800.</p>
