So i took a SAT practice test and i got like a 1650 or somewhere in the 1600′s(that is if i got at least a 7 on my essay which i think i can do), i struggled in the CR section but, i mean who doesn’t? I did decent in math and writing. I was disappointed in my score, im aiming for 1900+, i’ve been studying A LOT, because its the summer, and when i say a lot i dont mean like 7 hours, i mean 12 freaking hours at my table doing practice problems every day, yes i said every day thats how bad i want it. Any other recommendations on how to raise my score??
Currently i’ve split my 4 month time period before i take the actual SAT, the first month and a half im going to concentrate in the math section, i bought Kaplan’s SAT math workbook, i’m pleased with it, it challenged me which is good, the 2nd month and a half i’m going to concentrate in the CR and vocabulary since they pretty much go hand in hand with each other. The last month and a half im going to concentrate on the writing section of the test, im going to buy a book for that too. After all of this i plan on taking 1 last practice test, to see how much i improved from my first 1600-1650.
I hope i do good on it, i want to go to UCLA, USC, or USD for computer science. I do dragon boat(paddling sport) and im going to continue to do it through senior year to show commitment, i’ve volunteered for all of the marathons in San Francisco, i’m currently in a academy in my high school, AOIT(Academy of Information Technology) i dont know how that’s going to help but, the more the better.
I’m a 3.75 GPA student, but last semester i got a 4.0 GPA, I’m taking pre calculus next year, and i plan on AP calculus, and Physics honors(theres no AP physics, honors is highest) in my senior year.
I said practice test, i didn’t get a 1600 on the real SAT, i’m studying for it, i only have 4 months, im going to take it in october.
Well, im my workbook, i usually try all the questions first, and if i dont get it after everything ill look in the back but, after i do a couple of problems i usually catch on and i’ll be able to do some of them by myself,
Well for the physical part, i have dragon boat for that, that takes like 3 hours of my day and i’m exhausted after it so ill take a nap.
When i finish all the questions in a section, i usually jump around in the same section and redo the questions again so i get more familiar with the question format.
