<p>My writing went from a 670 to an 800 : O.</p>
<p>oh wow.I improve by about a 100 pts. If I improve for next time by another 100pts., it should be amazing! Writing is one of the easiest to improve on. I think they should totally take out the CR section and replace writing instead.</p>
<p>Math 690 to 740. Decent. What i was expecting anyway.</p>
<p>Math went up 60 points, from 690 to 750. At the same time, writing went down 40 points to a 700. o_O And critical reading stayed the same...</p>
<p>Holy crap, congrats TruthSmoker. My writing only went from a 710 to a 770.</p>
<p>My PSAT prediction of 65 (650) on the CR is now a 770.</p>
<p>My writing improvement was very similar to yours, Truthsmoker...A 680 to an 800.... I'm disappointed to say that my other scores did not go up nearly as much....</p>
<p>I want to make clear that I had a 760 until about 2 minutes left on the test, when I changed two answers. One was the rickshaws one (which I changed to no error) and the other was some random question that I had thought was a no error but I changed because of the 4-5 no errors rule.</p>
<p>math: 630-710</p>
<p>Reading: 560-800 :}</p>
<p>Truthsmoker, how did you do on CR?</p>
<p>Math: 630-750</p>
<p>!!!</p>
<p>I'm so happy!</p>
<p>Sophmore PSAT Writing: 540
SAT Writing: 720</p>
<p>PSAT Writing: 490
SAT Writing: 610</p>
<p>I only made practice tests, and my best progress so far was MR: 620 -> 780-800. I score below 600 all the time at CR and WS tho' ... :(</p>
<p>omg dekans
how did u get that reading score up to a 800 from a 560????
whis is ur secret????
i would be really happy if i could break 800 on the June Sat after a poor 580 performance on CR in Jan</p>
<p>After a stunning 560, I pushed myself to read widely, from different books to magazines, but I admit that there is no substitute for taking practice tests. I focused on the reading questions, noted the reasons I got questions wrong, and sought to correct those reasons. I think the best way to improve your scores is to find your OWN way of taking control of the test. Try different approachess and see which works best for you; personalize your study plan and don't just passively follow something given by others. :)</p>

</p>
<p>I got a 740, so my old score of 750 supersedes it, but I really did not "feel" last test's CR and so I'm glad I didn't get lower.</p>
<p>The reason I asked is because we got into that huge argument on exploitative vs adversarial and I wanted to know who was more likely to have it right. Thanks.</p>
<p>450 points increase
last year I took it as a sophomore and got 1720, this year 2170

I love the story about Horatio Alger</p>
