How to improve an SAT score?

in general. I took a practice SAT (not a PSAT), and got the following low results:

Math: 560
Critical Reading: 490
Writing: 390

Now im smart grade wise with almost all subjects 90+%, and I wrote a decent essay (8/10). I just have a bad vocabulary and I work slow >_<. Any and all SAT test taking tips would be apreciated :) . Also How would you comprehend more? That’s also an area im stuggling in :(

How much can one improve his or her SAT score?

I took a practice SAT test and I got a 1470. A 450 in Critical Reading, a 620 in writing, and a 400 in Math. I’m 15 going 16. I’m entering my junior year. I’m aiming for at least a 1700 on the SAT. Is this goal in my reach? Can I get some advice?

Do I send the highest ADDED score of all sections in SAT test? Or the highest scores of each section?

If I retake the SAT, and improve on certain sections but drop in others, would I have the option of sending ONLY the highest scores from each section, or must I simply send the highest ADDED score?

Which University of California schools average your SAT scores?

I’ve heard that some schools look at your highest total score, some take the highest in each subject, and some average all SAT scores. I’m mostly concerned about the last kind of schools, which UC and/or CSU schools average all scores?
Does this mean that I should take the December SAT to improve my average? It would be my 3rd SAT reasoning test this year and 4th reasoning test ever.

I want to improve my SAT SCORE – aspiring medical student?

I just recently recieved my SAT score, and it’s an 1810.

Critical Reading 580
Math 560
Writing 670

This is kinda disappointing for me, because I want to try my chance at colleges like UC Berkely and UC Davis, as well as some more highly selective ones.

How can I improve my score until June when I take the test again? Answers HIGHLY appreciated. I want to go to medical school.
