How did your practice SAT Tests in College Board Book compare with your REAL SAT score?
I scored a 2020 (M-700, CR-650, W-670) on my first SAT Practice Test and then a 2150 (M-760, CR-690, W-700) on the second test. How accurate are these scores? How did your eighth and final Practice test compare with your REAL SAT? Also, how much did u improve from very first practice test to the eighth and final one?

My scores varied on practice tests CR (570-670), M (700-790), and W (600 – 770). On the real thing I got just about smack in the middle of the ranges from practice tests give or take 20 points.
It’s very tough to simulate a real test environment.

I did worse on the practice tests. Now you could do better or worse on the real one depending on how good you are as a test taker. If in class you freak during tests you will do worse on the real SATs because of the pressure to finish each section on time. If you are fairly calm you’ll do better on teh real SAT because at home/during practice you were more relaxed but what you do now is at stake
i went to a practice sat session with princeton review and got 1800’s but i got over 2000 on real SAT because i think i realized that THIS is what mattered…
good luck!


Haha, my very first practice test I got like, a 1500. Now I have a 2000 something, and whenever I take a practice test at school or something it usually turns out to be that, so I’m pretty sure that’s what it’ll be on the real SAT. I have yet to take the real SAT in June.
