<p>People say math is the easiest to improve, and I'm not bad at math but for some reason I just don't do well on it.</p>
<p>What's the best way to improve math?</p>
<p>Practice. Practice a lot. I took my first SAT practice test little while back and got a 640. Being discouraged with that, I decided to do lots of practice to get my potential score up. Now, on practice tests, I'm in the 700-720 range.</p>
<p>I agree. I raised my math score from 650 to 760 by doing practice sections from this</a> book.</p>
<p>Cover important concepts. There are only certain topics that SAT tests in math section so if you know them, you should be fine.</p>
<p>Practice varies from people. Some people can do well by studying Gruber's. Gruber's provides few examples that are typically harder than real SAT. By doing harder problems, students become ready for problems of easier levels. On the other hand, some people prefer Princeton Review because their questions often involve a lot of repetition and difficulty is about similar. If you're one of those people who get it by "doing it" than "reading it," get Princeton Review.</p>
<p>Of course, I can't guarantee anything. I'm pretty good at math but I'm careless as well. That's other big thing about math.</p>
<p>I also highly recommend Gruber's. Great book.</p>
<p>Oh, also, the Kaplan 2400 book's math section seems to consist of the nastiest stuff you'll see on the SAT. When I took practice tests after studying Kaplan, the questions I missed were, surprisingly, the easy ones.</p>
<p>So yeah, get the blue book for practice tests and get Kaplan 2400 to see what it's like to do a whole section of just hard problems. Once you master those, real practice tests (with easy, medium, and hard questions) become cake.</p>
<p>If you do enough (and a variety of) math practice tests you'll see every concept there is</p>
