Test Preparation SAT Preparation

<p>sigh.. I've gotten 800's before on practice tests for CR but i got:</p>

<p>Math 800
Writing 800
Reading 730</p>

<p>Should i retake, because colleges don't even look at writing? =/</p>

<p>meh
You shouldn’t really retake this exam :confused: 2300+ is already a great score.</p>

3

<p>You should try for a 2400 :p</p>

<p>hey gensis, congrats man. how much prep did you put in ?</p>

<p>Don’t retake IMO, from what I’ve seen of people’s apps I’m starting to think there is a top echelon, or a sort of glass ceiling point where they just label you as smart and look at other aspects of the applicant. Like maybe 2300 or so?</p>

<p>Just relax and don’t go through the ***** of the SAT again. I wouldn’t, but consider that I’m pretty lazy ;)</p>

<p>Haha I did about a ptest a day and 2 ptests during Saturday for the 2 months before Oct and Nov SAT.</p>

7

<p>and what did you score on oct?</p>

<p>Would you say practice tests are the best way to study? all I ever did was read direct hits. ****…now I gotta decide whether or not to take the jan test</p>

8

<p>Definitely. Practice tests, i think, are the best way to get better.</p>

9

<p>Colleges aren’t going to accept you just because you got a 2400 instead of a 2330…</p>

10

<p>I am in the same condition as you. low CR with other two perfect. Not sure what to do. But i think there is still a difference in admission between getting 800 and 730 for critical reading.</p>

<p>Yeah I’m really not sure because I’ve gotten 800’s in CR on practice tests before, but I’m wondering how colleges would perceive me trying to take it again</p>
