That last itsy bitsy teeny weeny...

<p>Has anyone ever improved from a 650 to a 750 in the CR section?</p>

<p>My score report says I got 12 wrong, and it seems that I would have to get about half of those right to get my 750. This seems like a really small leeway. How difficult/easy is this to pull off?</p>

<p>well, to get a 750, you can only get 3 or 4 wrong. its definitely possible.</p>

<p>Man, that's really harsh. I wish you could miss that many and still get an 800... :(</p>

<p>It is pretty rough.</p>

<p>I'm in a similar boat, I got a 650 in April (hoping for a nice pretty increase from my June test), but I would LOOOOOVE to end up with a 750 in Oct.</p>

<p><em>sigh</em> the low end of my range from the blue book was 660 :(</p>

<p>isn't there a CD version of the bluebook? SO that your score is automatically calculated after you're done?</p>

<p>I dunno about that, but the book says that after you take a test, if you go to the website and put in all your answers, it will give you a little score report.</p>

<p>I have a 750 and it was 4 wrong, none omitted.</p>

<p>i only have done that once on the practice test, never on the real thing. careless mistakes are my weakness.</p>

<p>Careless mistakes on CR?</p>

<p>i dont like the online thing, since it takes forever to input every single letter, might as well correct it yourself</p>

<p>well the only real faux test(lol) that i took was the one on CB, and i did it on june 2nd. i messed up my CR, and got a 620. i found the jun 3rd CR sections pretty ok, but considering the 620 i got on the previous day, a 700 or close seems a little too much to hope for. i'm just keeping my fingers crossed for now....</p>

<p>"i dont like the online thing, since it takes forever to input every single letter, might as well correct it yourself"</p>

<p>haha, I kind of get a rush correcting it myself. My stomach drops a bit every time I find an error XD</p>

<p>i got a CR score of 710 on the real thing! so i guess the faux test really wasnt a good predictor...</p>

<p>^ Maybe... but 710 isn't really that bad.</p>

<p>Good job on the 710. I'm beginning to seriously wonder if I can get higher than a 700 on CR :(</p>

<p>The blue book tests are probably a more accurate predictor of your score the more of them that you take... if you'd taken a couple more, you probably would have done better, more like your actual score.</p>

<p>i improved by 130 points on cr...dec sat to june sat</p>

<p>shop-what did you do?</p>

<p>Just by practicing out of the blue book?</p>

<p>well this was after the ap englange language test so i practiced some reading comprehension for the ap exam out of the cliffs ap prep book (about 8 hours of practice) and then the day before the sat i spent about 2 hours on kaplan practicing the cr section</p>

<p>simple as that</p>
