<p>It's only one week away!!! Are y'all nervous??
I'd like to know what everyone's "target zone" is? & when we get our scores back, i'll create another thread for just the results.</p>
<p>Mine:</p>
<p>CR: 500 - 550.
M: 500 - 550
Writing: At least an 8 on the essay (I'm applying to a CSU so it doesn't matter.)</p>
<p>CR: 760-800(800 for very generous curve and I get lucky)
Math: 800
Writing: 0-2 wrong on MC, at least 10 essay
I’ll probably get in the 2300-2350 range.</p>
<p>I’m a senior and I will be taking it next Saturday for the last time. I currently have:
650 CR
700 M
760 W</p>
<p>Don’t really expect to improve M or W, just hope to get CR into the 700’s. Not applying anywhere all that competitive.</p>
<p>January 26 2013 – Doomsday
and how many vocab words have/will you guys memorize?
is it too late for me to start cramming =(</p>
<p>I’ll be spending next Saturday morning staring at the SAT for a few hours, so I don’t want that time to be wasted. I’m hoping for:</p>
<p>Anything below 1930, I’d be a bit disappointed in (as my PSAT was 193).
And a 1930-2000 would be ‘meh’ as it wasn’t really progress, but it wasn’t regression.
2000+ overall I’d be pretty happy with.
2100+ I’d be incredibly happy with.
2200+ I’d have to check the name at the top again.</p>
<p>Based off of my most recent PSAT (193; 62 CR, 67 M, 64 W)
I’m really hoping for a 700-740 in math.
650+ in CR, but this one is always iffy, even though I improved from 51-62 from the Sophomore to Junior PSAT.
And 700+ in writing as I’ve focused mostly on that in the recent month or so. A 10+ on the essay would be nice.</p>
<p>just memorize 250 Sparknote’s most difficult list and those from the blue book.</p>
<p>I actually I have no idea what my “target” score is because I just got my psat’s back last week and got a 170. But I’ve been getting 1850-1900s on practice tests so I’ve either improved a lot since October, or been taking easy practice tests with generous curves. </p>
<p>It’s my first SAT, so I’m half nervous to see where my skill level is actually at, but half comfortable knowing I could easily improve in a couple months either for the March or June SATs. Plus I’m planning on taking three so the same story will go after my second time around.</p>
<p>I’m a junior and this’ll be my first attempt at the SAT. </p>
<p>CR: 700 or higher. It ultimately depends on the amount of difficult vocab present on the test.
M: Nothing less than 750.
W: Hoping for around 750, but won’t be surprised with less.
E: 10+. I can write a pretty good essay.
There’s no way that I’ll be able to match my PSAT score (228) this month, after taking a 2.5 month study hiatus.</p>
<p>Hmmm…I’m actually kinda sad that I probably won’t be able to reach my PSAT score (237, no prep) since apparently I just got really lucky for it XD
But anyway, I’m a sophomore, taking it for the first time, my practice SATs have been:
M: 800
CR: 770-800
W: 710-760 
E: 10/11</p>
<p>I really want 2350+, but the Writing section is dragging me down…I’m hoping to get 800 for Math and CR so that I have a bit more leeway for Writing mistakes. I’ll probably end up somewhere around 2300.</p>
<p>I am only in 8th grade, but my average scores have been like this:
<p>I seriously need to get my critical reading up and writing to combined 1300…I guess for all of those last-minute crammers, just go in with confidence that you can do well and prep as much as possible(thats what one of my friends who got a 2380 told me)…</p>
<p>I’m a junior and I’m taking the SAT for the first time this Saturday. I’m kinda excited, kinda freaked out because I probably should have been studying.</p>
<p>My practice SATs (averaging):</p>
<p>CR: 630ish (As long as they don’t throw me one of those intense readings about quantum physics)
M: 620ish
W: 700ish
E: 11-12</p>
<p>Personally I’m aiming at breaking 2000, a great score for me would be 2100+. 
A friend of mine got 2300 on his first try so I’m sure you could break 2350!</p>
<p>DS just wants to beat his PSAT score. Best of luck to all!</p>
<p>800: math
750-800: reading
700-800: writing
I’m really nervous about the writing part, I’ve been doing a lot of practice tests but my score doesn’t seem to change…</p>
<p>aiming to break 700 in CR(670), 750 in math(700), and 760 with ATLEAST 8 essay( 6 and 5 last times…)does anyone know here you can find more practice tests?, ive completed BB, and already did the 2012 - 2013 online, as well as 2011 - 12. ive heard the most recent test on BB is 2007. any palce where I can find the collegeboard tests released from 08, 09, 2010?</p>
<p>VERY nervous. I’m a Junior and this will be my first official SAT. I plan to take it again no matter how good (or bad) I do. And I’m taking the February ACT in about two weeks, yikes! I want to see which I’m better at and so far I’m predicting I may be slightly better in the ACT but we will see. My full length practice tests range from mid 1800s - mid 1900s… My target score is 2000s but I doubt I will get that this time since my practice tests are from the Blue Book. I think my Reading Section will be a definite factor in how good I do because it’s the lowest and has the biggest range based on practice tests. </p>
<p>I think I am a great writer (I am also good at writing timed essays in classes such as APUSH and AP English Lang and Comp) but I never had anyone grade my SAT essays but myself which I feel I may be biased on? Anyone else in my situation? I’m hoping from a score of 8 - 10 for my essays ( at least that’s what I give myself).</p>
<p>I’m hoping I get a good essay prompt, if I get bullsh** one that is like “are the arts absolutely necessary?” or “if people worked less, would they be more active in their free time?” I’ll probably get a 4 or less.</p>
<p>As a senior looking back, I can’t believe I survived the SAT craze. It was a year ago when I took my first SAT.</p>
<p>I’m no authority on the SAT’s, but I would like to recommend everyone to relax.
I mean it!
Relax. Go to bed on time. Eat your favorite dinner/breakfast.
It really is only one part of your college application. Essays are just as important if not more.</p>
<p>I’ll be praying for you guys! Good luck!</p>
<p>^ ur in thailand?! wooow… not for studying right?! hahahahaa… am nosy…
i’ve always wanted to go…</p>
<p>anyway… pray for me too!
I hope we all get the grades we want… although that wud make the curve preeetty harsh… (lol… see how altruistic i am?!. hahahaha)</p>
<p>Just hoping for 750+ on WR</p>
<p>Already scored 800, 780 on Math/CR in Dec, so just needa boost up my writing score and I’ll be good since most schools superscore. (Although a 800 CR wouldn’t be too bad :)</p>
<p>@2200andbeyondXD
I will surely pray for you!
I hope that you will get 2200+ like your screen name :)</p>
<p>P.S: I am in Thailand for school. Yes, really! haha. I go to an international school here.</p>
<p>@readyfor2014
