Math..

<p>So on my first SAT I scored 800 CR, 720 W, 680 M. On the second one, I scored 780 CR, 700 W, 700 M. I had prepared extensively with my tutor and I really though I would be able to get a 750+ on the math. I don't think I want to continue with my tutor, does anybody have a workbook/online resource that really helped them? I want to get at least a 750 on the math, and I know I can get there, as I've done it on a couple mocks. Thanks</p>

<p>Anybody have any insight? I need a book that can just get me to that top level, as I’m already at the 700 level</p>

<p>Other than the Blue Book, it doesn’t sound like a book is what you need. I’m assuming that your tutor already taught you the basic “tricks”. Have you already done every test in the Blue Book? Can you explain how to do EVERY problem? Have you tried re-working them so that the ones you did by algebra you can also do by playing around with numbers, and the ones you did by “tricks” you can also do by algebra? You can find alternate solution methods to just about every BB problem on line (and probably here at this site). </p>

<p>And by the way, congrats on your scores so far.</p>

<p>I’ve heard about a dr.chung’s 50 tips and practice tests book, would that not be helpful?</p>

<p>^ I’ve heard that book has worked wonders for some but have not experienced the efficiency myself. Don’t take my word for this but, what else is there to choose?</p>

<p>I decided to order it. Is taking the sat a third time a “red flag” for colleges or is it ok to do so?</p>

<p>its ok.</p>

<p>math and reading are more natural ability, sorry brah.
dont think it would improve anymore (considering you prepped for this one and it didnt)</p>

<p>Well considering I have the natural ability for a 760-770, as evidenced by my mock test scores, I think the book will be able to help me eliminate the stupid errors as well as improve my problem solving skills.</p>

<p>Does anybody else want to weigh in on the “taking it a third time” issue? Is it ok? Does it look bad? (Sorry if it’s a little off topic)</p>
