Is it possible to improve SAT score by 200 points?

<p>I took the SAT in early March and got my score back: 1960 (620 CR, 690 Math, 650 Writing). I'm a bit disappointed in this score but I should be happy considering I kinda just winged it. I plan on retaking it in June and actually preparing this time. I'm shooting for 2100+ this time so my question is that is this a reasonable goal?</p>

<p>definitely! my score from the january sat went up 160 points on the march test</p>

<p>I went to a 1800 on a practice test to a 2180 on my actual SAT, so i’d say it’s very possible for you to improve your score with a bit of practice. Get old SAT’s (either in a book or online) and sit down and do them. It may seem like a like of work, but i found it can help immensely.</p>

<p>I went from 2070 to 2340 in 3 months, so it is definitely possible. Like agenuario said, your basic method for improving is just doing more and more practice tests, PREFERABLY from the Collegeboard book AND the online course, as they are different tests. Collegeboard also releases an official practice test each year, you can take a look at that as well. Don’t use books from Barrons or Kaplan, they do not replicate Collegeboard’s mindset in reading, math, nor writing. Princeton Review I hear is relatively close, but only use that as a last resort. Finally, read Silverturtle’s guide, or have a tutor; you should know what material Collegeboard tests you on; everything on the SAT is recurring, not new. Collegeboard only tests you on specific things in writing, reading, and math. This is so you can focus more on those specific areas, rather than studying everything about grammar. You don’t want to study the entire dictionary, when you really only need to study the most repeated SAT words that Collegeboard uses.</p>

<p>Absolutely! I went from:</p>

<p>71 -> 66 -> 800 CR
59 -> 64 -> 680 Math
58 -> 66 -> 690 Writing</p>

<p>I think I can still review more and do even better, because Math and Writing are easier to pinpoint areas to study. If you set your mind to it, it’s possible.</p>
