<p>Yeah, the more you fill in the better they score your essay…you should right bigger. I mean, they take 30 seconds to grade each one so making it longer will bump you up a point or 2</p>
<p>So what are you guys up to? I’ve just been cramming vocab and I did a few practice CR sections yesterday that didn’t go too well. I’m going to work on some math tonight and keep working on vocab. I’ll probably take a practice test this weekend.</p>
<p>I’m getting inundated by schoolwork. I’m trying to fit the SAT in my schedule by canceling all ECs from here to January 28, but even that doesn’t help much, as I have several finals to study for :. </p>
<p>I was planning to do play a sport for my school, but that has gone down the pipe because I simply have no time to condition 5 days a week and still have a realistic shot at a 2400 :/.</p>
<p>Hey IceQube,</p>
<p>you can do it! You might now be able to play a sport, but it’d be good to condition yourself a bit everyday. The way your mind focuses due to athletics is important for your well-being. Nonetheless, don’t deprive yourself too much! There’s more than just hard work that gets your the 2400. It’s purely dedicated work when you do study!</p>
<p>^Thanks for the support :). I know you can do it too :). Anyway, I’ve been trying to take a jog every night, and I did over winter break, and I will try to continue to do so. I’ve heard that sports have a ** salutary** effect on one’s performance in school. Perhaps sports simply get the blood circulating to the brain.</p>
<p>^ I don’t know about that… I did cross country my freshman year and was exhausted after every practice. I found myself falling asleep very early (8 or 9 PM), which hindered my ability to complete my homework. Maybe a less intensive sport, like tennis, would have less of a negative effect, though. (I actually did tennis, and aside from losing 2 potential working hours a day, I didn’t feel that much more tired after school.)</p>
<p>I found about 15 qas/psat’s from the past 5 years. In addition to the blue book and online course tests I nabbed, I have 35 total tests. Its like I found treasure lol!</p>
<p>^So jealous! Where did you find this trove of tests?</p>
<p>I would also like to know where to find QAS and PSAT. 15? That’s crazy!</p>
<p>What advice do y’all have from experience to get past the 680-720 math hump?</p>
<p>Lol if you guys want them I will be happy to share it with you.</p>
<p>Could you please send them to desire9870***********?!
Thanks alot!</p>
<p>@ yahoo
.</p>
<p>can you send me it as well? My email is juppal13@gmail(dot)com. Thanks man, appreciate it!</p>
<p>PM’d you my email. Thank you ^-^</p>
<p>Thank you sooo much (: You kinda made my day (you know you’re from CC when…)</p>
<p>Took the first two CR sections of May 2011 QAS and so far it’s pretty easy. -2 so far, but I feel that I won’t be so lucky in section 8. ^__^</p>
<p>Anyway, hope everyone is progressing! :D</p>
<p>Hey any tips on reading passages. I just took three sections and I got a freaking 590! Yeah, I’m mad.</p>
<p>Grammar would be helpful too ^_^</p>
<p>Holy crap eagles, you are extremely nice.</p>
<p>Haha no problem guys. Im going for a 2300 in march and I know others are as well so I thought of sharing.</p>
<p>To tell you the truth I havent taken any of those yet except for one psat-17. I got 2 wrong on the first reading section so far and perfect on math. I use the psat for practice by doing a section everyday timed and reviewing. I save the sat’s for weekends after extensive study to simulate test conditions. Doing by sections really makes your skills honed. </p>
<p>Anyways I have even more tests and ill share them when the time is right.</p>
