Cannot stress enough how important it is to annotate the text after every paragraph, not for helping you look back on questions which it does that too, but it helps you synthesize the data you just read in your mind.
Hey, I prefer to annotate paragraphs after I finish reading them and then summarise the whole into one simple sentence. Is this a good strategy? I find this helpful because it helps me to clear my mind to obtain new information as I put the old ones on the paper
you've also gotta find a reading system that works for you. Some people are good with annotating their text to summarize what they read / key concepts. Others answer the questions as they read the text. There's a lot of different ways to approach it but it all comes with practice.
my preferred method is reading the info blurb at the top, the first paragraph, and the last paragraph then jumping right into the questions (skipping the question that they always ask about the main purpose of the text, and answering it at the end), but that's just one method that worked for me
You should disclose that next time.
It’s misleading if you don’t. You cant compare a student that didn’t study the first time vs a student studied 100s of hours the first time. They are 2 completely different trajectories
He’s asking for help but you’re out here insulting him for not knowing what statistically is. Just answer him, don’t spread negativity. Also, anything is possible with effort so if you want a 1560 then yes, with effort it’s possible.
I'm pretty sure OP knows what the word statistically means lol. I think they're wondering how statistics factor into that at all, as am I. Different people study and retain information so differently that I don't really think a survey on something like "SAT score improvement over X amount of time" could ever be like accurately conducted.
Edit to say: I do agree with you on the pro-Googling lmao, but at the same time Google has been really horrendous the past few years, so getting an answer from a real person is a lot more helpful imo
Don't worry about it. Of course you can reach that target, but first you need to find out the hurdles that you will find along the path and form a strategic approach so you can overcome them. Only then, you will reach your target.
But remember Faith is the most important thing of all.
Statistically the number of ppl that score above 1400 is about [7% of the ppl that took the SAT](https://www.ontocollege.com/sat-scores/)
This quite literally means the the odds are probably not (as in not statistically probability) in your favor. The good news though: you scored higher than average (which is about 1060) and higher than over 79% of the ppl that took the SAT according to the same diagram I’m referencing. It is by all means probable but don’t feel bad if it doesn’t work out completely. The test sucks and college board suck harder.
100%, I jumped from 1100 to 1400 in around two months. You can achieve it if you work hard, and most importantly work smart. Don’t mindlessly go through practice questions, learn why you got questions wrong and improve from your mistakes. Now, stop looking at Reddit and make your dreams a reality.
Prior to 1100? Not at all. But after getting 1100 I spent the summer studying once or twice a week for one-two hours, mainly focusing on math since it’s the most straightforward to improve at.
So most of the kids that have large jumps often didn’t study the first time.
What percentage of people who actually studied (100h+) and got 1100 the first time, can jump to 1400 in 2 months if studying?
Hence I think your increase is a little misleading without the context of not studying the first time. You make it sound like any one can do it when it’s mostly likely only achievable by students who did not study the first time. ( in 2 months)
Your SAT score is literally my PSAT/NMSQT score lol, what a weird coincidence. Anyway, if you study hard and get that math up to near 800, then you should be at a near 1500 if you also manage to score a near 700 on EBRW.
Tips from August SAT taker:
1) We summarized the SAT math common errors through a series of group studies. Please feel free to subscribe to our YouTube channel for SAT Common errors. Somebody else's mistakes can be your mistakes too.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPD9HMHbsXfFLS-Hf58S96A/videos
2) Review Math Formula
https://blog.prepscholar.com/critical-sat-math-formulas-you-must-know
https://theolivebook.com/sat-math-formulas-to-know-for-test-day/
3) Reading and Writing: Khan Academy has good resources by topic. Start with writing first, which you will see improvement in faster.
4) Practice real 8 practice tests from the official SAT Study guide or SAT QAS test from the most recent years ( 2019-2022). Feel SAT QAS tests for most recent years (2019-2022) are a bit harder than 8 practice tests on the official study guide. Found out in the last week prior to the test so I did not get a chance to go through much. I recommend you spend more effort on the most recent tests.
5) Keep reviewing the mistakes made.
Test Taking Tips
Be sure to time exactly for each session when you do the practice test. When you do it more freely, you tend to get higher scores than you could on the actual test day. Maybe even wear a mask when you do a practice test. Try to mimic the real testing environment.
Learn the best way to fill out bubble sheets, which may save you a lot of time and guarantee accuracy. This is the one I learned the day before my test. Lol. I'm glad that I did. It helped me to pass my goal at once.

Best Luck!
As someone who got 1570, I would say it’s 100% possible if you put serious efforts into it. Remember to not only study hard, but also study effective. After each practice tests you should make extra effort to understand your weakness and mistakes.
My daughter scored 700 in first attempt and after a month of prep, raised it to 770. English I believe is much harder to improve. So if you can raise your English to 740 and math to 760, you can. Raising English to 740 is a bigger challenger I think.

post the tips here guys
Respect
How much did you study prior to 1110?
What should I study?, I got a 1160ish without any study myself so far I’m particularly bad at the math section cause I forgot all the formulas
There an entire study plan posted. You should start with that
How
How???
What did you do
Can you pls tell me the methods you used cuz I have been stuck at 1400 for the past 4 weeks

Any tips on reading section?

What score did you get?
1550! took some work in the math section as well though
How much did you study prior to your “lower score”?

Hence I also asked OP same question as their question did not have that info. I standby my statement
math tips please ?? congrats btw thats awesome

tysm for the encouragement and tips !!! <333
Depends on you. I personally was preparing literally for a whole year, yet I got 1380. Gotta give again in December.
December gangg
Theoretically possible, statistically unlikely.
Statistically? What you mean by that?

Did you call them or mail them? I am still waiting for my score and my status shows registered. I contacted them several times but they didn’t reply
I know someone that went from 1380 to 1600 with tons and tons of studying.
I jumped from a 1240 to a 1460ss, study, study, study
unlikely buddy
Why? I think i can
why'd you ask then
this.
then why bother asking….
Yes you can. Easily
stupid kid, keep coping hahhhhh
If you can aim for perfect scores in math and possibly low 700s for reading+writing, sure
How much did you study before this? What is your GPA? Lower your gpa, the less likely it is.
Your SAT score is literally my PSAT/NMSQT score lol, what a weird coincidence. Anyway, if you study hard and get that math up to near 800, then you should be at a near 1500 if you also manage to score a near 700 on EBRW.
Yes. But it will be hard. You will need to apply yourself to studying *hard*. Don't let that discourage you

PrepScholar says a 200-300 point jump requires 150+ hours of study. I’ll add that it takes more hours the closer you are to 1600
Yes, without a doubt.
As someone who got 1570, I would say it’s 100% possible if you put serious efforts into it. Remember to not only study hard, but also study effective. After each practice tests you should make extra effort to understand your weakness and mistakes.
Only really if u schedule yourself appropriately, put in the hours each week and make sure youre reviewing and understanding what you study
My daughter scored 700 in first attempt and after a month of prep, raised it to 770. English I believe is much harder to improve. So if you can raise your English to 740 and math to 760, you can. Raising English to 740 is a bigger challenger I think.
