<p>Okay, so I want to start a thread with people posting their most AMAZING USEFUL advices and tips to score high on the SAT?</p>
<p>What is it?</p>
<p>(:</p>
<p>OK, I don’t know if this qualifies as amazing, but I will tell you that in my experience it is the single best piece of advice I can give, the importance of which is often under-valued…here it is:</p>
<p>SLOW DOWN.</p>
<p>No kidding, your adrenaline is pumping, you are eager to have a great day and you are pretty worried. Put it all together and you don’t have time to breathe, much less think. So make yourself take that deep breath and give yourself that extra time to read, think and play. </p>
<p>It’s a marathon, not a sprint. You can’t rush your way to your personal best.</p>
<p>pckeller is 100% right with that tip…going fast is the worst mistake you can make on the exam, the SAT is w itself quite stupid 
</p>
<p>Another tip I can offer for the CR section is when on doubt ALWAYS go for the neutral non extreme choice!!! I raised my scores from 680 to 770 because of just this (no joke) </p>
<p>Good luck and don’t worry-you’ll all do fine

<p>OK, here’s another one you’d think would be obvious:</p>
<p>Use the Blue book and other COLLEGE BOARD tests THOROUGHLY.</p>
<p>I mean get yourself to the point where you can understand (and even explain to someone else) EVERY question in the blue book. And even better if you can explain it more than one way – algebra, say, AND make-up-numbers.</p>
<p>Everyone is looking for the secret path and lots of CCers say they have “finished the blue book” (and then moved on to the fake stuff). This always puzzles me because in my teaching I encounter very few students who actually finish the blue book in the thorough way that I am talking about. But I don’t know – maybe college confidential attacts a tougher, more determined crowd…</p>
<p>Anyway, that’s another piece of obvious advice.</p>
<p>Pick all the right answers instead of the wrong ones.</p>

<p>No **** sherlock.</p>
