<p>Hi again!
Many of you thankfully replied to my posts in late February. I'm that one freshman who was planning to take the SAT and ACT in March, and I was asking for 'chances' (My bad, I should've just asked what to stop, continue, or begin in extracurriculars and school).</p>
<p>I was surprised everyone was freaking out about me taking the SAT as a freshman and in 7th grade.</p>
<p>Because everyone was freaking out about it, and telling me that my scores would be recorded, etc. I have to explain:
I took the SAT and ACT through a gifted and talented search that forces me to drop the score no matter what. So even if I got a 2400 it would not be an 'official' score. While I took the exact same test that you all took, my scores were not recorded. SO IT'S ALL GOOD! :)</p>
<p>I got my new SAT scores: 2,120 (720 math 610 reading 790 writing!)
and ACT scores: 30 (32 math 32 reading 28 science 28 english)</p>
<p>From 7th grade SAT, over 3 years ago: 1,930 (710 math 590 reading 630 writing)</p>
<p>^any comments, how can i improve? </p>
<p>I only jumped a little in math which REALLY disappointed me (i am taking AP Calc BC, so I was suppposedly already learned everything that would be in the test, and i thought the math was REALLY easy). My reading was low, but I did not expect such a low increase :( But I am super glad that I went through the Peterson's and Barron's writing SAT books. They were so great, and i jumped 160 on writing at least :)</p>
<p>I was disapointed on all of my ACT scores. I had easily enough time ( I was able to check the reading section 2 and a 1/2 times! Too much?) and I felt like I aced it. Except for the science. I was so glad i got a 28, I had to guess on at least 20 of teh 40 problems haha).</p>
<p>And yes, I'm doing lots of clubs and sports (FBLA, city orchestra, football track, etc. too many to write down), don't worry about extracurriculars. I am not freaking out about my prospects of getting into Ivy League. All I am is focused, driven, and hopefully prepared for college.</p>
<p>P.S. I will be taking the SAT 2 math subject level 2 test tomorrow. I took precalc and ap world this year but i am deciding not to take the SAT 2 world history because it is too risky to get a low score.</p>
<p>P.P.S. I think I did really well on the Ap world and Ap statistics tests though. Definitely at least high 4, if not both easy 5s.</p>
<p>P.P.P.S. Please give me any pointers, or anything that I am missing right now. I hope you don't get the idea that I'm some crazy korean american who studies all the damn time. Don't worry I have lots of fun still. I mean I'm a freshman. Don't think i'm some nerd who studies all teh time. :)</p>
