<p>Alright guys well I'm a jr. this year at my highschool, this SAT exam is really bugging me out and worrying me. My main goal is to achieve a 1800 or above, but however I would rather have a 2k + than a 1800 but 1800 is my goal so far. Little about me I'm a bad / slow test taker and panic alot. Also I notice that most people in this forum are very smart thus they have an advantage along with studying. Im taking precal and physics for my level but I dont take any AP classes or such. So if you can help thanks!</p>
<p>An 1800 is really easy. All you need is slightly above average scores per section. Just study and practice.</p>
<p>Anyone else's advice?</p>
<p>If math bugs you, it will be VERY easy to compensate. Be concentrated, do a bunch of practice for math and you can get 700+ (if you do careless mistakes).</p>
<p>For writing, getting 650+ depends only on practice. CB asks always the same types of questions. For the essay, prepare a set of example and an essay template for test day, and 10 on the essay is very doable.</p>
<p>For CR, I don't know. Vocab is a big thing, and should be a long term area of concentration. Read outside of class (good literature, intellectual journals/magazines/diaries). For short term, use barron's or CB's Blue book, and intense practice will nail it. You shouldn't get more difficulties than me, since I'm not even a native english speaker, yet improved a lot on CR by working assiduously.</p>
