<p>I'm an international student taking SAT in June. I have a 4.0 unweighted GPA and am aiming for 2300+. My English level is about 6.5-7 IELTS. I think I can get an 800 math easily. Also Writing does not seem very hard and getting 750+ must be accessible after some practice tests. However, I'm so concerning about CR, I really dunno how to master it. I really need at least 700. So, I've several questions:
1. What is the most effective way to study CR, in your opinion? Plz consider I have just 4-5 months.
2. Is 800 W possible? What do I need to do exactly?
3. Is a 5 month time duration enough for preparing in order to get 2300+?
4. Should I memorize words from word lists? Basically my vocabulary is weak.
5. Any tip? Your experience?</p>
<p>Instead of just guessing at what you <em>might</em> get, actually take a practice course and see how you do. That will give you a better idea of what you need to do, and give us a better opportunity to give you good advice.</p>
<p>There is no universally effective approach to learning how to read critically. </p>

<p>It’s possible but unlikely. You need to determine what kinds of questions you’re missing and you need to address those weaknesses.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>It would be hard (though, again, not impossible) for even a native English speaker to pull this off.</p>

<p>That’s what the “average” kid does. Of course, last I heard the “average” verbal score (each section) is around 490. Don’t bother with word lists. </p>
