<p>gilmorelove4life - prep classes r dumb, especially if it's from princeton or kaplan. they don't help. they just don't trust me. get lots of books and study them instead of wasting ur entire summer and $1000 of ur parents money on them. ur already in the ~2000 range and the courses treat you like you don't know how to do the quadratic formula, so therefore it won't help (compared to just sitting down and churning through books during the summer)</p>

<p>critical reading: 750
math: 660
writing: 740
total: 2150</p>

<p>i'm taking them again in october. i'm hardcore studying for the math section this time around lol</p>

<p>here's my chance to show off... XD forgive me</p>

<p>math: 800
reading: 800
writing: 780</p>

<p>I was ecstatic when I saw this, obviously. I had been prepping writing for a while since it was by far my weakest subject and it paid off.</p>

<p>I wouldn't take prep classes. I would just do the books. I used exclusively Princeton Review.</p>

<p>@zephyavatar, Which Princeton Review books did you use? Please give the names of each one. Thanks!</p>

<p>can't remember the title. I assume it's just the generic one for the SAT I, just I used multiple editions.</p>

<p>barron and kaplan have good books too, I just like the layout of the PR ones (I think the practice tests are also closer in difficulty to the real thing, but that's just me)</p>

<p>I forgot, I also used Barron's Writing Workbook for the New SAT, cuz my writing was weak.</p>

<p>Did you use PR 11 Tests? Also, what helped you in your CR or are you just naturally good at CR?</p>

<p>730-Critical Reading
760-Writing (10 essay)
800-Math</p>

<p>Pretty happy about the math score! The critical reading could be better, but the writing wasn't bad.</p>

<p>Omg, I bet your pssed! Just 10 points away from 2300! Aww! That would totally drive me insane! O_o</p>
