<p>I might be in the minority, but if my practice tests are any indication I'm about the same on all of them - 710 W, 710 CR, 720 M.</p>
<p>Of course, that means I have to study for all three of them as opposed to just one...</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm not bothering studying the vocab, that section's fine, it's just the actual passages that suck.</p>
<p>writing fo shore. I can never nail that essay... an 8 was enough for me :-)</p>
<p>CR definitely. 680- i just can't quite pull it above 700!
i want to really badly. one more try in october. I have taken 3 practice test and once for real. im scared i will go down though!</p>
<p>Math. I hate SAT I math. I can't get it past 700 :[</p>
<p>Math for me. It was 120 points lower than my other scores on the June SAT. :/</p>
<p>i'm suprised there aren't more people having trouble with writing.
I tied scores in CR and math and got 90 points less in writing. 9 on the essay.
HATED the writing section. </p>
<p>and math is by far the easiest to 'study' for I think, so it shouldn't be impossible to improve a score that is in the 600's or less (IMO).</p>
<p>all of the good books ive seen have indexes of the most important math concepts. studying those helped me crank up my score.</p>
<p>I got an 8 on the essay but still did better on writing than critical reading. 690 W, 660 CR.</p>
<p>CR...fail miserably at it</p>
<p>CR by far...</p>
<p>Critical Reading... oh boy.</p>
<p>CR</p>
<p>I just need to read/think faster, or use more techniques naturally, I can get (almost) all the questions right given adequate time for reading/thinking.</p>
<p>Just like most others, I find CR to be the hardest.</p>
<p>Math. It's the hard-difficulty grid-ins. :(</p>
<p>I would say CR</p>
<p>Math is interesting to study for, and the problems don't cover difficult material, they're just tricky.</p>
<p>Writing isn't bad. Grammar rules are common sense if you read enough. The essay is easily learned - length is the key.</p>
<p>CR isn't THAT bad, but still.</p>
<p>Math is easy, CR is pretty easy (I just need to work on learning roots etc), Writing is the hardest for me. I need to look over the grammar rules etc before I take the SAT again.</p>
<p>Math is very easy for me; I kinda zip thru it. CR, on the other hand ... don't get me started.</p>
<p>llpitch why are you retaking? 2330 is a great score.</p>
<p>^Probably (now I'm just guessing here) because he wants a better score.</p>
<p>And mine is math. It's the only section that really seems pointless to me. No matter what you pursue in college, you'll need a foundation in reading and writing, but why do I need to be able to recognize the usage of a special right triangle theorum if I'm going to study history and politics? Can our president factor a third degree polynomial in 30 seconds? I think not. (Nor can he pronounce the word "polynomial" in 30 seconds, but that's beside the point).</p>
<p>I don't think the vocab section is helpful for engineering. And the logic for the CR section is nothing related to the logic used in math/sciences/computers. And writing a 25 min. formula essay using big words aren't that necessary for these subjects either. </p>
<p>But acing CR... tough i can only say</p>
