<p>which book is better for the sat math:</p>
<p>dr chung</p>
<p>pwn the sat</p>
<p>can you please tell me why</p>
<p>ps. i cant get my score higher than a 680 either bec of time or just silly mistakes</p>
<p>Neither. I scored first time on the SAT 670, then 800. All I did was practice, no books or any of that crap, just straight up doing sections.</p>
<p>Silly mistakes mean you should mark the questions for key words/numbers and also go back to a section after you have completed it and check over every problem if you have spare time. You also can try to practice completing math sections with less time than allotted during the real administration so that you will do well on the real test even when you aren’t feeling your best. </p>
<p>From what I’ve seen (i.e. postings by other people on CC), Dr. Chung’s doesn’t really match up with SAT I Math for the most part besides the occasional problem. I’m not sure about “Pwn the SAT,” but as Monyistbitu stated before me, rely on practicing in the BB rather than third party companies. Also, look into reading the guides mentioned in the Sticky Thread. Here is the link so that you don’t even have to hit “back” to see it: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-preparation/763933-everyone-read-before-posting-best-sat-prep-forum-faqs.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/sat-preparation/763933-everyone-read-before-posting-best-sat-prep-forum-faqs.html</a></p>
<p>I’ve read some of these guides before, and what I’ve seen is phenomenal. It’s amazing how much these threads teach you about the SATs, and you really should take advantage of their generosity/general awesomeness.</p>
<p>thanks guys</p>
<p>I scored a pathetic 560 on the January SAT. I am not a great math student obviously. I looked at Dr.Chung but it was too hard for me. So I gave PWN a try. Definitely easy to understand. I did feel better about my perfomance on the March SAT. I am hoping to score over 600.</p>
