<p>I only have one or two shots at the SAT as I have left this very late (I didn't really know a lot about colleges and admissions prior to junior year), I am planning to do intense prepping over the summer. My main question is, considering that I do have one or maybe two shots(december rush), how accurate is the Blue Book test scores recieved to the real thing. I know things like rest, anxiety, essay scores can change it, but really, what is really the actual accuracy.</p>
<p>It’s more or less the same. I could put it for you as plus/minus 40 maybe, unless you do something really off the hook on the test day. In my case, I scored a little higher (I guess +70) on the actual test than on my best test from the Blue Book.</p>
<p>The BB tests are created by the College Board, so the content of the tests should precisely match the content found on the actual test. In fact, three of the practice tests in the BB were previously administered. However, the BB does not duplicate the stress and anxiety that you face during the actual test.</p>
<p>Even though there’s no perfect indicator, the BB is the best indicator you could possibly get.</p>
<p>100% considering that BB and “real SAT” are the same thing.</p>
<p>On tests 4-10 use the lower end of the range for multiple choice writing. Otherwise the scales are accurate.</p>
<p>My son found his BB practice test scores to be very accurate. </p>
<p>You mention only one or two chances this fall, but there is also a Nov SAT date. You would barely have your Oct scores back before you would have to sit for the test again, but it is possible.</p>
<p>As far as the content of the test itself, BB tests are as accurate as you’ll find. However, I found in March that the actual pressure of taking the real deal is a huge factor (for better or for worse, depending on how you work under pressure). So, don’t take your practice test scores as the be-all-end-all.</p>
