OFFICIAL OCTOBER 2014 SAT THREAD (International students)

<p>@ivan95 how much did you score in the toefl speaking section</p>

<p>20 -so bad </p>

<p>Do you guys have any tips for not running out of time? I think this is affecting a lot my scores… How do you do it? Also, do you think i could use examples from Brazilian literature on my essay?</p>

<p>I’ve been getting 750+ in math 600+ in writing but cr…i really cant seem to increase my score. :frowning: a korean from the philippines btw.</p>

<p>i really good at math, but im running out of time, so my scores arent good, i getting worried. cr, im about to give up haha</p>

<p>@anacla that means you are using a long method to solve problems, there are many ways to solve the same problem try to figure a faster to do it ,since you are good in math you just need practice. and how much are you scoring in the reading section</p>

<p>@ivan95 well thats because speaking is the most difficult section. you just have to keep practicing</p>

<p>@satplzzz I think it will not be problem because my speaking skills have improved significantly since I took toefl</p>

<p>@youngbin1130 try to memorize direct hits words for CR</p>

<p>@ivan95 i got the direct hits vol 2 , is the 1 and 2 enough for the sat??</p>

<p>certainly for 16/19 on sentence completion questions, and very likely for 18 or even 19.</p>

<p>Hi guys, I’m taking the SAT on October, and I have been practicing since 2-3 months. I’m able to score 800 on Math and above 650 on writing (without regarding the essay). But the CR is terrible, I cant pass 550, I barely score +500. Any advises would be appreciated. </p>

<p>Hi guys, I’m from Vietnam and I’m also taking the October SAT test. Still cramming as much as possible, although I doubt that my score can go any higher.
I just wish I have superpower or something. This is unbearable. </p>

<p>i hate the critical reading section.</p>

<p>@anaclara me too. if i could just score an 600 in cr it would be unbeleivable</p>

<p>same!! i need to get at least a 550… @satplzzz every time i’m sure i got the right answer, i correct it and im wrong </p>

<p>@anaclara same propblem but im able to score around 540 i just want to improve it little more and are you taking toefl</p>

<p>i dont know if i need to take the toefl, i studied all my senior year in a high school here in california, and graduated. some colleges told me i had to get at least 500 in english on the sat, so i wouldnt need to take the toefl. But i think probably i’ll have to take it @satplzzz</p>

<p>oh okay, good luck for the sat @anacla and what is your dream school</p>

<p>@anaclara So you are on gap year?</p>
