<p>My last test was all screwed up because I just had to answer every single questions, guessing pretty blindly on the ones that I didn't know. In each section, CR, W, and M, how many can I omit to still see 800's in each section? I didn't think it was possible to omit answers and still get an 800, but I think I saw it somewhere on CC.</p>
<p>Unless you’re a TERRIBLE guesser (and you know it), I wouldn’t omit anything as long as I could eliminate one answer choice.</p>
<p>^ Don’t agree. This strategy works only if you are normally scoring at 800-1900. If you are aiming at 2000+ you’ll have to make less guesses.</p>

Why does everyone think that guessing is so bad? It’s called EDUCATED guessing. It’s not like you’re just groping around in the dark looking for a light switch. Doing practice tests, I had to make educated guesses all the time. Usually I eliminated until it was between two answer choices. Like hell I was going to omit the response just because I had a 50/50 chance. I just went with the educated guess.</p>
<p>One of my friends said she came out of December 09 SAT feeling bad because she felt like she had to guess for a lot of the CritRead. Well, she got an 800 in CritRead. She made educated guesses, and they were all correct, even though they felt unsettling to make. Had she omitted all of the responses to the questions she was unsure about, no WAY would she have gotten a 2380 on her SAT.</p>
<p>Normally I don’t guess, but that’s because I’m terrible at it. xD</p>
<p>You don’t want to omit any in math if you’re aiming for an 800. There have been a few easy curves that gave 800s even with a raw score of 53, but don’t test your luck.</p>
<p>For CR you can omit two and still get a perfect, sometimes even three.</p>
<p>This, of course, is assuming you don’t miss any other questions.</p>
