Improving my SAT score

Test Preparation SAT Preparation
1

<p>Well i took the May SAT and i did not horribly bad, but not what i wanted. I got VB-530, Math-490, WR-520. It is kind of my fault since i didnt study at all and taught i could get a great score. I plan on studying for the october SAT and following the xiggy method i think i can raise my score drastically. I was hoping to atleast get in to 1900 if not over 2000. I will be suing the blue book, rocket review, and grammatix. I think these will help me greatly, and also i will look into the kapla cr book, sicne that is my strong part maybe i can get it in the 700. hopefully this will do it. any suggestions will be greatly appreciated, am i aiming to high to get over a 2000. So i got from june to october to prepare intensively for this test hope i can make it over 2000. </p>

<p>I know excactly where you are coming from. I just got to stay focus well anyway I'm using Maximum Sat by Peter Edwards and THE Official Study Guide. And hopefully by October I should be ready to knock it out of the stadium.</p>

<p>Good Luck to you, Yeah I was thinking of getting the Maximum SAT, is it good? I am also thinking of getting McGraw Hills CR, MATH, and Writing book, if ayone has use it, Is it Good???</p>

4

<p>I'm just starting but so far I rate as being good because it explains the test questions and answers from the Official Study. It even calls itself the unofficial companion to this book so to me that what makes it better than the others.</p>

5

<p>Thats pretty good, I hve heard many good things about it, so I will give it a try.</p>

<p>If anyone can answer my question, is the Mcgraw Hills books for Cr, Math, and Writing good or not. I mean the ones for each part seperately.</p>

<p>Just a word of caution. Because your current composite is 1530, if you get a 1900 or 2000 they will most likely investigate your socre before it is released.</p>

7

<p>Oh ok, well I mean Im just gonna study as much as I can, I hope I do good, not much I can do besides that. Im waiting for the Q&A to see what I got wrong and what parts.</p>

8

<p>are you having trouble with the sentence completion? If you are you should study barrons flash cards. Like 500 total i think. They are great words to know</p>

9

<p>I dont seem to be able to find those flash cards on amazon. could you give me a link to them?</p>

<p>Here's 50 advanced words here:
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0812065379/102-4050519-6939309?v=glance&n=283155%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0812065379/102-4050519-6939309?v=glance&n=283155&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>I'm not sure that was the one they were referring to.</p>

11

<p>the flash cards are in barrons (regular SAT book) In the back as rippable sheets</p>

12

<p>"If anyone can answer my question, is the Mcgraw Hills books for Cr, Math, and Writing good or not. I mean the ones for each part seperately."</p>

<p>I tried mcgraw hills math workbook and when i used it i thought it was good, but then i noticed that it wasn't as good as i thought when i picked up the barrons, I would go for barrons instead.</p>

13

<p>Ok, so you recommedn the Barrons Math workbook, even though they were made before the New SAT was realeased??</p>

14

<p>bump this, i need practice and help over the summer. I also have low sats and want to bump it to higher level</p>

15

<p>well i recommend the kaplan math n writing n CR workbooks..</p>
