<p>I need some motivation. </p>

<p>What's the most you have improved your SAT score in one month??</p>

2

<p>I took the SATs in March and got:</p>

<p>580 Reading
640 Math
730 Writing</p>

<p>Didn’t start studying until May (1 Month before the June Test) because I was studying for Subject Tests and APs and whatnot.</p>

<p>Anyway, in a month of studying I improved to:</p>

<p>730 Reading
710 Math
800 Writing</p>

<p>And I really didn’t put THAT much studying into it. Just memorized DH and did the practice tests.</p>

<p>what is DH?</p>

<p>Direct Hits’ vocab development book.</p>

<p>In one week of prep, I improved Writing form 670 –> 750 and Reading from 670 –> 720.</p>

<p>Bump Bump.</p>

<p>@ raiderate: how did u achieve that miracle? :open_mouth: in juz one week of prep?</p>

<p>@ raiderate: please tell us ur secret… SATs are coming up for me too and i want to improve my scores by all means… math is getting much easier as i just studied for the SAT 2 Math 2, but CR is grrr while writing is just having to study for the different types of grammar rules…</p>

<p>I got on my June SAT
CR - 520
Math - 780
W - 600
I have less than one week for prep for the SAT I on Nov. 6th one and I just did a practice test and wow…I improved miraculously! 8 wrong on CR and only 1 wrong on Writing. How I did it? I read few pages of a book I’m reading, thought about it, and then kept reading. I did this for an hour or so. I also went online to memorize some words.
You might think this is stupid and that anyone could do this. But I’m telling you that reading, even a small amount, will boost up your CR and W score. I’m serious.</p>

<p>I went up 160 in three days. If that helps?</p>

<p>I took the October SAT and studied only the three days school was off before the test and somehow have a 2320 now!</p>

<p>bump bump bump. bump. bump bump bump. bump. (love lockdown)</p>

12

<p>Bump. Come on people.</p>

<p>Reading was sheer dumb luck. Writing on the other hand I was able to pick up quickly. I did 1-3 practice sections every day and went through the answer explanations of EVERY single question. In addition, I used 10 days to a 12 essay and went up from an 8 to an 11.</p>

14

<p>I improved 370 points in a month on the real test. i did work hard with the official sat study guide and the testprofessors books. They’re newer i think but they worked way better for me than barrons or kaplan or princeton review.</p>
