SAT barrier

Test Preparation SAT Preparation
1

<p>Ok, so I've done alot of the practice tests from the BB (the latest version) but still have a couple more to go...and also have all the tests from the 10 real SAT's and the 6 previously administered PSAT's and the online course to complete.
But right now, i feel like im at a barrier in my SAT score. On the practice tests from BB i have taken so far im scoring 2100-2160. </p>

<p>HEre is the average breakdown: </p>

<p>Math: 800 (easy)- this happens every time</p>

<p>Writing: 720-760 (its usually a matter of just one question that makes my score fluctuate 40 points because i get 2-3 wrong every time)</p>

<p>Readin; 640-660 (ugh...this is my "SAT barrier" . For some reason, i can't get passed through it and im really aiming for 760 ish. I've done alot of critical reading practice but i just can't seem to get anywhere. Usually i get alot wrong on the sentence completion (like 6-7 but then on the passages i get like 4-5 in total wrong) I don't know WHAT to do...And please don't tell me to read books because i hate reading</p>

<p>^Vocab, vocab, vocab!</p>

<p>If i do do vocab, what are the chances that the words i study coincide with those on the test? …I’d rather do something more productive that’ll help guarantee success, rather than just hope to be lucky</p>

<p>The more words one knows, the better. You would be better off learning hundreds of words then doing as little as possible. Vocabulary is only aspect of the section, though; and to be honest, not even the hardest.</p>

<p>Actually I might have exaggerated about the number of sentence completion questions i get wrong; i don’t think i really get 6-7 but sometimes i do. Frequently, however, i get around 4-5…yea i exaggerated.</p>
