Thread: Tell me about being successful on the new SAT

Necro needed.

I need advice on how to study for the SAT's now.

Any advice appreciated.

Don't worry about it and don't study. If you know basic math and are a half-decent reader getting a good score is no trouble at all. And since I've seen some of you writing 2-page long posts the essay shouldn't be difficult either.

If you absolutely must study the vocab at least use freerice.com which is almost fun to use.

What did you get Xox?

I got a 1970

Unfortunately, you can't really study for those types of tests. It's more of what you have to show for the years of schooling you've already had. Best advice in the world: take the test more than once. Take it as many times are you can possibly stomach. Your scores always either increase with each new test, or sometimes they stay the same. The point is they never decrease, so you have nothing to lose. I took the ACT three times.

At freshman year I got a 1260.

Now Im taking it again in junior year, then over and over until senior year.

The colleges only count your highest, so best thing to do is take it several times.

I don't know but I'm really worried about it. O_O I did horibble inmath, I hadn;t even taken algebra at that point. Writing skills wasn't too hot either.
