SAT Prep Plans for a horrible scorer on the SAT

<p>I need SAT Summer Prep Plans so can do good on the October SAT. I scored a horrible grade, too horrible that it doesn't belong the nice grades on CC. I want at least 1100 or 1200 minimum out of 1600. That's all. Any ideas. To raise scores by like 100 or 200 points?</p>

<p>Follow the Xiggi method(Located at the top of sat forum)
*Buy Grubers for a good math review-practice those problems
*Buy the Offical Sat study Guide(BLue book)- very useful!!!!!
*learn some writing rules
*just read books, or magazines such as Time which are invaluble to comprehension and vocabulary</p>

<p>Try to understand how the sat is formulated, and if you keep practicing you will begin to understand what questions = what answers and by no time you will gain a dramatic increase. </p>

<p>you should rise up 600pts =)</p>

<p>really???? you could really raise 600 points? what about if it's out of 2400, is it possible to raise at least 500 points?!?!?</p>

<p>anything is possible, you need the desire, disciplane, dedication, and a little bit of moxie to knock a 2400. Stay focused put in effort and understand your mistakes and its possible to raise it howmany points you want.</p>

<p>thank you so much! that really motivates me :) btw, sorry kidnovelist about jacking your thread but can you guys help me? I created by own thread but afraid that not many ppl will see it, so please condone me if I offended you. Can you guys please chance me?</p>
