SAT Stress

<p>Hi Everyone!
I will be taking the SAT test in less than two weeks. I'm a senior and this is my last shot because CollegeBoard does not offer a March SAT for international students like myself. The next SAT date after January is May (too late)! I need to do well on this test so I can apply for colleges. I probably did 15 practice tests on which I never scored below a 650 on Mathematics section. I'm good at math and on an average day, I can score 680-700's. However, I'm scared i'm not going to do the same on test day. I'm going to be so stressed and I know i'm going to do horrible! Any advices on how to stay positive? I'm scared that the test is gonna be difficult and i'm going to be unlucky and do horrible. Also Ive been focusing on Critical Reading and I have improved dramatically over the course of 3-4 months. I can now reach 550's (I know its not so good, but keep in mind that english is my 3rd language). I only wish I can do that on test day. :( I cant work whilst having students around me and a teacher reminding me of the time which stresses me out.
Any tips? What should I do now? I'm memorising Direct Hits vocabulary and practicing.</p>

<p>Just keep practicing and have faith. </p>

<p>Do not think negative things like the test is going to be difficult,… </p>

<p>Be positive. Just think that you can do better than in the practices; believe in your capacity!!</p>

<p>Keep calm and believe you can to do it!!</p>

<p>good luck</p>

<p>Your English is actually pretty good (even better than many Americans whose first, and only, language is English)! :slight_smile: Seriously, the only dead giveaway was “memorising,” in which we say “memorizing.” But I know it’s very common for the British to utilize S’s in place of our Z’s! Seriously though, don’t let your nerves get to you and I’m sure you’ll do just fine! :D</p>
