help? how should I study for the SAT

<p>I am a rising junior, in the past month or so I have been studying for the SAT and I took a test today and got a 1930 CR=690 W=630 Math=610</p>

<p>It seems like I run out of time on math, and the "find the error" on the writing section dominates me every. single. time. how can I improve? I want to get a 2100+ and im clueless on what I can do to raise my score! </p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>As an SAT Math tutor and author of an SAT Math prep book I can give the following tips:</p>

<p>(1) Learn SAT specific math strategies. If you don’t know these, then you are putting yourself at a serious disadvantage. For example, if you find yourself doing algebra or complicated computations, then you are not optimizing your score.
(2) Practice SAT math problems 10 to 20 minutes per night. This will maximize your retention and keep you from burning out.
(3) Redo every problem you get wrong OVER and OVER and OVER again (a few days apart each time) until you can get the question correct ON YOUR OWN.
(4) Practice problems of the appropriate level.
(5) Practice tests should be taken just a few times to make sure you are applying all the right strategies under timed conditions, and to make sure you are familiar with the structure of the test. This is NOT the time that you are actively improving your score.</p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>

<p>thanks guys, I’ll use your advice!</p>
