<p>How to rise my CR score from 500 to 600?
I will be satisfied if I can get a 600 on CR.</p>

2

<p>I want to know how to raise my CR from 400-550. I would think lots of PRACTICE.</p>

3

<p>Taek a prep course or get a tutor. Test prep works. It isn't about what you know, its about knowing how to take the test.</p>

4

<p>I know a lot of strategies that work for me, but my comprehension just sucks ass.</p>

5

<p>Enrich your vocabulary.</p>

6

<p>Read. A lot. Look up words that are unfamiliar to you. Remember those words. Read the passage(s) once before attempting the questions - this saves time and increases your level of accuracy.</p>

<p>If I can think of more advice I'll get back to you. Good luck!</p>

7

<p>memorize "wordsmart" list of vocab.</p>

<p>it will definately put you in the 600's region</p>

<p>I think memorising vocab is most effective in raising your scores up till 600.</p>

8

<p>replace rise with raise in your post, thats how</p>

9

<p>It's more than just practice, I'll tell you that. I practiced my but off and only managed to pull a 620 at most.</p>

<p>You need to fully understand the questions and how to answer them. After you practice for so long you will see that you are getting better by a little bit, but there are still questions that you seem to miss almost every time. Where I went wrong is I kept practicing the things I did well isntead of focusing on the things I know I suck at. It hurt me on the PSATs. I knew exactly what I couldn't do, and didn't know what to do about it.</p>

<p>modest reading skills + WordSmart vocab = 600.</p>

<p>but 600 -> 700? anyone help?</p>

11

<p>Most people who push 700+ scores in CR have been reading a lot for their entire lives...</p>

12

<p>poor reading skills + what = 550+?</p>

13

<p>All my troubles are caused by the limited vocabulary.But I'm too lazy to memorize word lists.:mad:</p>

14

<p>Yeah, I'm pushing 600 --> 700.</p>

<p>Anyone read my post? I'm sure it would work! I'm going to take a summer course with Sylvan.</p>

15

<p>poor reading skills + nasty vocab skills = 550+ in 20 years?</p>

16

<p>poor reading skills + WordSmart Vocab List = 600</p>

<ul>
<li>lots of luck = 700.</li>
</ul>

<p>I went from a 450 to a 600 with half of the WordSmart vocab list (in practice tests though... I'm still waiting for my Jan SAT)</p>

<p>good luck!</p>

17

<p>Grammatix, vocab, reading. My first practice test, I got 660 verbal, on my first SAT I got a 750. Expanded my vocabulary and practiced a lot.</p>

18

<p>read everything you can</p>

19

<p>lil_killer129: poor reading skills + what = 550+?</p>

<p>poor reading skills + reading = 550+ X</p>

<p>If you're a procrastinator, then take AP English Language. When AP week comes around, you'll force yourself to take practice tests and all of a sudden it just clicks as to how to do CR.</p>

<p>But...if you don't have time for that then....I suggest you read a little bit more and take blue book tests over and over again.</p>
