<p>800 CR</p>
<p>It is my worst section.</p>
<p>Of course it is CR, SAT math is a joke and mastery of the writing (aka grammar) section is easily acquired.</p>
<p>CR for sure. I never know the vocab.</p>
<p>But then with 780s in W & M, I'm biased. I think writing is the easiest. I'm surprised that many of you think it is the most difficult.</p>
<p>Ivydreamin - my ds got an 800 on the CR also. He has been an avid reader - hours a day - since I can remember. The CR section came easy and naturally to him. He did well on the other sections, too, in the high 700's, but he had to work and practice for those scores.</p>
<p>CR, where you actually have to think for some of the questions.</p>
<p>SAT math is only composed of quirky questions that never rise above the Geometry level... just getting rid of careless errors almost ensures an 800.</p>
<p>Some of the writing questions are just downright picky and ridiculous. (and the essay is a joke, of course)</p>
<p>Why argue about this? Just get them all.</p>
<p>800 CR. 800 math is attainable, 800 writing too with luck, but 800 cr is impossible...well almost.</p>
<p>hahaha it seems like 90% of the people on CC are math geniuses who could get an 800M with their eyes closed, but can't seem to break 700CR. I'm in awe of you people-- I'm the exact opposite.</p>
<p>800 CR. </p>
<p>800 math is possible if i stop speeding through questions. 800 writing is possible as well, as long as they don't make up grammar rules.</p>
<p>But 800 CR? do you know how many words there are in the english vocabulary? Its always one or two sentence completions that own me. Then + 1 passage question misread and a 800 is no longer in sight.</p>
<p>800 W because of the subjective component (aside from that, it shouldn't be any harder than CR). </p>
<p>800 Math is a joke of epic proportions.</p>
<p>I'd say 800 CR, as well.</p>
<p>In order to get an 800 CR, basically you need to have prep'd for 16(ish) years by simply reading books! Seriously, if I had just kept up all the reading I used to do CR would be sooo much easier :o Just by reading more over the summer, I raised my score 50 some points.</p>
<p>800 CR</p>
<p>A good math student can probably get an 800 without much difficulty, and by simply learning grammar, an 800 becomes obtainable, but the ambiguity of CR passages and the possibility of unknown vocabulary words makes an 800 in CR quite impressive.</p>
<p>800 W</p>
<p>Math is fairly basic, reading takes skills you've been (hopefully) honing for the last 16-17 years and applies them. Not many of us have taken a real grammar course, and so writing is relatively difficult (not to mention getting rid of 16-17 years of slang...)</p>
<p>Most definitely 800 CR</p>
<p>I want to add that I read in "A is for Admission" that Dartmouth adcoms were impressed by an 800 verbal score on the old SAT because it suggested that person was a "voracious, lifelong reader"...it also said that 800 M suggests a strong logical thinker. Basically, you're much better off getting 600/800 than 700/700</p>
<p>I think 800 CR is the most impressive.
Too many stupid rich people get 800s on Writing (or high 700s)- the easiest section to prep for.</p>
<p>i think math is the easiest no doubt as long as you check your answers for stupid mistakes since its basically at the 10th grade level. CR is harder but its under your control and we've all been reading for our whole lives. Writing i think is totally random and the essay topics are such BS that i think that would be the hardest to get an 800 but also worth the least in my opinion.</p>
<p>Sorry to say it, but look what years of television viewing and computer videogames in their early years have done for society's young. It is a shame that the vast majority of teen contributors on this website think that READING is the hardest of the 3 SAT tests. </p>
<p>Recreational reading is mostly passive. You just lie there and soak up the adventures of the characters. And I know a lot will protest that these CR passages are non-fiction and difficult to comprehend, but I know from personal experience that reading fantasy fiction for years and years as a child is a FANTASTIC way to prepare for the CR part of the SAT. For example, Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew books are wonderful vocabulary builders, all while the child is having a great time.</p>
<p>Those of you reading this--please see that the younger members of your family start reading for recreation for 1 hour daily starting in first grade and increasing to 2 hours daily (minimum) after about second grade. That is the very best way to prepare for the CR--my d got an 800 on the CR by doing this exact thing. And the 800 on the CR was INCIDENTAL--she just so enjoys reading and that was simply gravy.</p>
<p>^
I got an 800 CR and I barely read...I still consider CR the most impressive section to ace because it requires deeper thinking IMO than M and WR. But don't lecture us and tell us to read more because plenty of us have aced CR.</p>
<p>well i find 800 writing just because it happens so rarely</p>
