<p>Not native speaker. Considered math as my strongest ability, with writing coming in a close second (got 'em 750s for both)...</p>

<p>My first SAT one year ago was 520CR, 520W, 590M. = 1630. I did not really care about it, I was more into the girlfriend of mine staying in the test city along with me. Did not prep.</p>

<p>So this year I kinda figured some prepping would do, so I spent about a moth doing 'em practice tests. October: 710CR, 680M, 650W = 2040</p>

<p>That's 410 points. And the math section really screwed me over, I dunno how in the world I could only manage a 680 when I've gotten high grades in college math courses.. Eh.</p>

<p>Junior PSAT - 156
Junior SAT - 1720
Senior SAT - 1890</p>

<p>i've got an amazing story.
all right, so freshman year psat i scored:</p>

<p>57 CR, 51 M, 53 W (161 total)</p>

<p>i'm number 2 in my grade, and my best friend is number one.
he got:</p>

<p>76 CR, 72 M, 73 W</p>

<p>when i saw what he got i became sooo depressed (bc i thought that i would never be able to get such scores. additionally, before this psat i had been really complacent about standardized tests. i just didn't care)</p>

<p>so i started prepping. i didnt know very much about the psat, so i first got PRs 11 sats and psat. i worked through the entire book in a week.
i basically worked my butt off every single day, poring over huge test books, doing practice tests.
i also read extensively. i read the brothers karamazov, the scarlet letter, a modest proposal, anna karenina...the like.</p>

<p>i took the SAT in october (i was hoping to get 2100 tops)
and i got...</p>

<p>800 W (79 MC, 11 E)
760 CR
690 M </p>

<p>1610--->2250, a 640 pt jump. i havent seen any one in this forum do that yet. so i'm pretty proud of myself.</p>

<p>i wasn't expecting to get such amazing scores. i usually get around 69-72 MC score on W. what i did different in this SAT was that i didnt change any of my answers or overanalyze anything. i just went with my gut feeling.</p>

<p>hope this helps!</p>

<p>Went from a 490 CR on a practice test this january to a 710 on the real thing for CR.
Went from mid 500 ish on practice math sections and now get consistent 690-710 ish.</p>
