<p>Hello Dears,
I am an international student aiming at Harvard and Michigan.
I got a 1740 on SAT May test: 600 writing, 660 math, 480 reading. Yet I had tough preperations.
Seems silly, I know.
I am retaking the SAT in October in the U.S as a last chance due to schools deadlines. I am ready to work much harder to get a 2200+.
Could you just say what I do need; I would be grateful.
Thank you in advance.</p>
<p>View the bulleted posts in this section! For math, I suggest you work through the math sections in the Blue Book and use the online answers to truly understand how to do every problem. For writing, just go over your grammar rules and practice. For CR vocab, you can go through the direct hits book as said in the stickied posts but I go about it a different way and simply just read. Whenever I come across a word I don’t know I look it up. The best book to read for SAT vocab is probably Catch 22. As for the passages, I can’t help you there since I’m horrible at them :|</p>
<p>Also, make use of your free online resources!! Well there’s obviously CC, but there’s also Testive, Number 2, Spark Notes and PwntheSAT! (PwntheSAT has some good books too but they were too expensive for me so I didn’t get them :|) </p>
<p>Also, space your studying out so you don’t overwhelm yourself. Set up a good study schedule since you have the whole summer. Good luck!</p>
<p>@Jellybae , thank you my dear!</p>
