Juniors, SAT score better or worse than PSAT's?

<p>PSAT Score 1790
May SAT Score 1820
Up but still a long way to go.
Disneyguy where did you take the online etymology course? Thanks</p>

<p>S did better
PSAT 213 ( CR 68 M 69 W 76) He had Integrated Math I and II in 6th and
7th grade so he never had a proper geometry class. </p>

<p>SAT 2180 (CR 690 M 740 W 750)</p>

<p>Improved:</p>

<p>PSAT: 219
CR - 71
M - 72
W - 76 (notice this is my best score)</p>

<p>SAT: 2250
CR - 800
M - 770 one wrong
W - 680 wha....? Freaking 7 essay!! >:(</p>

<p>Pleased to say I did a bit better.
On this year's PSAT I got a 214-- CR=76, M=72 and W=66
On the May 3rd SAT I scraped by with a 2210, CR=720, M=800, W=690.
YES! However, since I live in Washington (State), I'm not sure if I have any luck with national merit. I have a nasty feeling I'm either going to barely scrape the cutoff or be one below.</p>

<p>P.S. I studied my behind off (read: I took a dozen full-length practice tests) before I took the SAT. Apparently it paid off.</p>

<p>BTW, great job to everyone else! Those are amazing scores, regardless if the rose or dropped from the PSAT!</p>

<p>junior PSAT:
54 - CR
57 - M
54 - W</p>

<p>May 2008 SAT:
660: CR
640: M
600: W
8 Essay</p>

<p>Junior PSAT: 228
CR 80
M 72
W 76</p>

<p>March SAT: 227
CR 800
M 770
W 700</p>

<p>May SAT: 2300
CR 750
M 750
W 800</p>

<p>Stayed in the same range for PSAT and SAT. (However sophomore PSAT was 201 and leaped to 228. Summer prep course between sophomore and junior years probably played a part; wanted NM status.)</p>

<p>It was through Northwestern University's Center for Talent Development, Learning Links distance education program (whew). Essentially, it is conducted through email with a textbook that you buy....though, in all honesty, you could just buy the book and not do the class and all the benefits would be there (with the exception of a teacher correspondent and motivation).</p>

<p>In any case, here's</a> a link to the class.</p>

An online etymology course sounds like good advice for my daughter, a sophomore. Thanks! What college do you hope to attend?

</p>

<p>Vassar College and Princeton University are tied for me right now...</p>

<p>disney, can you provide the name of the textbook?</p>

<p>10 PSAT: 212
11 PSAT: 202
11 SAT: 2190</p>

<p>Yeah, pretty messed up...</p>

<p>I've seen steady improvement.</p>

<p>Sophomore PSAT: 216
CR: 69
M 76
W 71</p>

<p>Junior PSAT: 223</p>

<p>CR 79
M 75
W 69</p>

<p>May SAT: 2350</p>

<p>CR 770
M 780
W 800</p>

<p>I think I am definitely an exception to a rule in regards to PSAT/SAT score relation.</p>

<p>Mine went up:
188 PSAT
2000 SAT :)</p>

<p>I did worse.</p>

<p>I had a 180 something on the PSAT
1730 on the SAT. The only thing I improved on was CR...</p>

<p>I didn't study too much, I did 4 or 5 practice tests and TONS of SAT Q's of the Day.</p>

<p>I was pretty disapointed.</p>

<p>better, soph psat=199, junior psat=209, march sat=2180, no additional prep at any time</p>

<p>psat sophmore :162 (67 m, 51cr, 44wr)
psat junior: 194 (70 m, 55cr, 69wr)
1st SAT: 2050 (780 m, 640 cr, 630 wr)
2nd SAT: 2170 (740 m, 710cr, 720 wr)
2210 Superscore
HUGE IMPROVEMENT</p>

<p>Mine went down : (
Sophomore PSAT: 190 something
Junior PSAT: 224
SAT (first time): 2040</p>

<p>Better.</p>

<p>Freshman PSAT: 157
Sophomore PSAT: 191
Junior PSAT: 201
March SAT: 2050
May SAT: 2220</p>

<p>Significant increases only between freshman/sophomore PSAT and junior PSAT/May SAT.</p>

<p>192-->1960. My writing went down, but CR and Math went up. I'd lose another 100 points in writing if it'd bring me up to a 1430/1600, to be honest.</p>

<p>My math went up, but my CR went down :(, my writing stayed the same.</p>

<p>10th grade PSATs: 70 M, 80 CR, 72 W Total= 222
11th grade PSATs: 72 M, 79 CR, 73 W Total= 224
SAT: 740 M, 680 CR, 730 W Total= 1150</p>

<p>Overall, I'm pretty pleased--especially with the math (I've had some trouble in math and the fact that it went up, even just a bit, shows I've been improving). I'm hoping when I take the SAT again I can get my CR score up--considering how well I did on the PSATs, I feel like I should be able to do that if I study.</p>

<p>Worse, so far.</p>

<p>216 PSAT, 2080 SAT. But I'm retaking it in June and hoping to break 2200, lol.</p>

<p>Hey poetrygirl - still need to work on that math :) I think you made a 2150 on your SAT rather than an 1150.</p>
