So I am trying to get my SAT Score to 2000+ by the time I apply to colleges. I have taken the SAT two different times. I am taking the SAT for my 3rd and final time this October. I would really like to score 2000 (or higher).

I’ll go over my situation with each section.
Math
I end up having to rush on some sections which leads to the occasional stupid mistake.
I’m not very good at a lot of geometry questions. Especially questions involving angle measures.
It seems like I’m not improving my Math score no matter what I do. So I need advice on what I can do to start seeing actual progress.
Reading
I’m a slow reader. (Especially with passages that I find boring which is like all of them)
I’m not good at passage based reading tests in general (SAT or regular school test)
I actually am decent at Sentence Completions. But I would still like to improve.
Similar to Math, I can’t seem to improve my score for this section. (I actually got worse from December to March)
Writing
I read The Ultimate Guide to SAT grammar before I took the March SAT which did help me a lot.
I’m still not very good at the improving paragraphs questions.
It’s hard to get around the No Error option for the identifying errors.
I want to be able to consistently score 10’s on my essays if possible.
Does anybody have any kind of advice for me? It would really be appreciated.
