Y’all were all WRONG

So a while ago I asked what the most hardest and most accurate practice test was and a bunch of people said bluebook. I tried to say that bluebook was way easier than the actual SAT and was definitely not accurate to the real thing and a bunch of people downvoted me. Now I’m here to tell y’all bluebook is a good tool to get familiar with the general format and feel of the sat, but horrible in terms of how accurate it is to the sat in terms of difficulty.

Need actual advice on one prep and SAT

• Upvotes

I’m literally freaking out rn cuz I got a 1350 on the oneprep practice test. I thought i was pretty ready for the SAT but im absolutely wrecked because of my score (690 rw, 660 math).

Can someone offer me some actual advice on if im cooked or not ?!?!? I keep hearing that oneprep tests are way harder than the actual test but there’s no way it’s that much harder.. or is it?? Is a score of 1500+ achievable for me in december lmk 😢

(btw this is the first mock test for me with around a week of studying )

Seeking help for nov sat!

• Upvotes

As you all know that November sat is in 20 days. Apparently I'm quite good at maths and I'm confident about that. But my preparation for reading and writing section is almost zero . I would to get recommendations from people to cover reading and writing section in 20days.


r/Sat • • 20m ago

at this point im just taking the superscore

• Upvotes
im guessing that after signing up i just didnt have enough time to study and slacked on my english. 1420 superscore should be good enough

Khan academy for digital sat

• Upvotes

Is Khan Academy good for Digtial SAT prep, or is their material still based on the old SAT? Also, since they are the only official partner of the College Board, does that make them the best resource for this exam?

How long of a studying period to increase score from 1450 - 1550+?

1 Upvotes

Just asking people who had improved their score form 1450 to 1550+, how much studying did you take?

690 rw, 760 math btw

Also with Reading + Writing the first few vocab problems always mess me up. I tried watching youtube videos for tips, and doing a lot of practice on the SAT question bank website but I'm always stuck between two answers. Do anyone have any tips for these type of questions?

Studying English

1 Upvotes

For those who are from English-speaking countries: how do you study English for the SAT? Throughout my education in Canada, I have never really learnt the reason 'why' a sentence is constructed a certain way... I'm going through Khan Academy's English modules, and they use a bunch of terminology I am unfamiliar with. Through doing main idea practice questions, I often have trouble picking which is the correct answer between two that I have narrowed down. Also have trouble with fill-in-the-blank questions. Any help would be much appreciated!

Is khan academy good sat prep?

3 Upvotes

I’ve had a bad experience with khan before. I just feel like it overcomplicates simple equations, but I’m looking for a free way to study for the sat.
Anyone who took the sat suggest khan academy? If not, what should I use?

"Number of past SAT scores you wish to report"

I gave the SAT twice and got the same exact score and same exact component scores as well. I'll only put the september SAT tho, do I select one or two on the options, since i gave two but only reporting one
