<p>So I am going to take my 2nd SATs in June.
But I have to start studying for my AP tests because this is the first year in which I have multiple AP tests (Last year, only had one).
I will be taking Ap Calc AB, Ap USHistory, and AP Lang tests.
I need to pass every single tests with 4 or 5..
But I also need to take my SAT on JUNE 1st, not even 20 after my AP testing is over.
I last took the SAT on January so I probably need some more practice (I was stupid enough to slack off and relax the past 2 months)
How can I pass the Ap tests with 4s and 5s but still get over 2100 or even 2200(my dream score) on SAT?
(last SAT, I got 2020)
I need a plan!</p>
<p>This is my problem (sort of) this year as well. I’m a junior and I’m taking two AP tests. I took the SATs in January and I am planning to take them again in October. I just want to ask- why isn’t retaking in October an option for you? I think it might be ideal since you are so worried about studying for all your tests.</p>
<p>Focus on your AP for now until the tests are over, then put your whole effort on the SAT preparation as long as it does not affect your school finals, if any. Remember, you only have one chance for the AP test and GPA is critical for school application, while there are still several opportunities for SATI for you.</p>
<p>It probably seems like you can’t do it. But I have 3 SAT II’s and 2 AP’s in May then 2 SAT II’s, the ACT and the Pakistani MCAT in June. I made a study plan. It takes a lot of work to make a good one (you can’t distribute time evenly. you have to give less time to things that need less time and more to things that need it. For example. I’m giving one day to Biochem and 4 days to Human Physiology).
Just my 2 cents.

<p>oh and it might be more difficult for you than it is to me because I graduated last year (Gap Year). But study plan FTW!</p>
<p>sardonyx827: October is an option but I don’t think I would be able to pass 2200 just by taking it in October. And I reserved November for my 2 SAT 2s(korean and math) just because…
Also I want more experience in taking the test…
Really? You guys are discouraging me…
No study plans available?</p>
<p>Since you already got 2020, 2200 is not out of reach. Just go through the practice tests and study the answer that you’ve missed. You did not tell us your section scores. If you have weakness in certain section, you may need to focus more on that. You should be able to improve in Math and Writing, while critical reading may need longer time.</p>
<p>Literally you just need to make a plan. I had four APs last year, three may SAT 2s, one june ACT, and Academic Decathlon nationals which is basically glorified standardized test taking the week before APs. Yeah. The only one I did bad on was my Calc exam which I knew was going to happen anyway, but I still studied my butt off for it. I made a plan. Your AP classes will be lower on hw or your hw will be study guides, so just use the next month and a half to study. Monday - Apush. Tuesday - Lang Wednesday - Calc Thursday - SAT, general. Lather, rinse, repeat. You may get less fun time in, but if you want those scores you’ll have to work.</p>
<p>The good thing is that the math and reading portions of the SAT are taken care of through your AP testing. You may want to brush up on some formulas, but hopefully if you’re taking calc you can handle SAT math. Lang is a LOT of critical reading and analysis, and hopefully you’ve learned your parts of speech and how to write a proper essay. But if you’re weak in those areas, look! You have friday-sunday to specialize.</p>
<p>Discipline is an excellent skill. You can do it. <em>fist bump</em></p>
<p>Well I am kind of ashamed of my SAT score…
Math 710 Writing 720 CR 590…
I really need to work on my CR and need to raise more of math and writing. </p>
<p>Thanks Emmymillions for the encouragement. I only wish I am discipline enough to follow such schedule…</p>
<p>Anybody else that can help?</p>
<p>For CR the best thing to do to improve is to study as much vocabulary as you can. My advice is you prepare for APs while memorizing about 50 words a day. You got some nice scores on the other two sections, so what you should do is take a few practice tests right before you take the SAT. </p>
<p>Just memorize vocab, and when you are done study for your APs!</p>
