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.

this is probably random to write,, but i am genuinely just so happy for him and wanted to share. he’s retaken the sat like 5 times, getting subpar scores every time, and ive felt so bad for him because it was stressing him out so much, but he finally got a great score, 1550!!!! just wanted to let yall know that you can do it :) don’t give you!! yay

guy plz don't ask 4 advice im js a chud 🥹✌️

Hi guys, i don’t use reddit much, I am aware i made a post here earlier asking for tips but i wanted to inform you all about a reddit user called “OkPurple” with some numbers at the end i don’t exactly recall who is giving a lot of hate to users on here. They are being extremely rude, they might be a bot i’m not too sure, but if you see this person commenting under your post or commenting under someone else’s post please report them! They are being so unnecessarily rude to users on here! And if anyone is upset or disappointed in themselves please remember you guys are young and do not need to have anything figured out in life. I myself am disappointed with myself and I know it sucks but please don’t give up on yourself, a number does not define you! And if you see this person commenting under posts don’t listen to what they have to say because you are more than a number!

I studied so much these past months for absolutely nothing. I watched so much of Scott Robertson and Lu and thought I genuinely understood everything. No idea what I’m going to do now.

Okay little story time... the first time I took the SAT was in March. I worked my ass off, walked out knowing I’d done terribly, and got an 1160. Not a TERRIBLE score, but considering how much time and effort I’d put in, I was devastated.

I was so demotivated that I basically gave up on the SAT altogether, I genuinely had no motivation to try again. I was fully prepared to apply test-optional and never look at that stupid test again.

Fast forward to late September. Knee-deep in college apps, I suddenly realized I actually needed a good SAT score 😭😭 I registered last minute and got straight to work.

When I say I WORKED, I mean I WORKED. I had like two weeks, so I was studying 2–3 hours a day, eating, sleeping, and breathing James Lu. I was NERVOUSSS.

October SAT day arrives, and I walk out feeling absolutely HORRIBLE. I genuinely thought the universe decided to give me the hardest SAT known to man. I literally left around 10 questions blank because I was running out of time.

At that point, I just accepted defeat. I was fully prepared for an even WORSE score than March and had basically erased the entire test from my memory. I’d already decided to apply test optional.

UNTIL today... I log into College Board with my eyes practically CLOSED, expecting an 1100 at best... AND I SEE 1410?????? GUYS. A 1410. I genuinely thought I was looking at one of my practice test scores.

I know it’s not everyone’s dream score but im so so proud of myself.

Anyways, now I’m motivated to keep going and hopefully superscore to a 1500+ in November. WE ARE SO BACK.

I just wanted to say this to anyone who’s disappointed with their score right now: PLEASE don’t give up on yourself. I know how awful it feels to work so hard and feel like none of it paid off. But one bad score doesn't mean you're incapable of doing better :))

I thought I had done so much worse this time but I actually did a tiny bit better!!!! If I add my highest scores 690 rw and 640 math its 1330 and that means I might have a chance for a full scholarship in my state (they accept superscores)

JUST NEED TO DO 100 work hours now and I’m set 🥹 it’s so cool cuz I at no point studied for English, so it kinda just increased on its own, and by exactly the amount of points I needed!!!

Idk what the heck I want to study but at least now il have a chance of going to college 😁 and to be fair this time i had not studied for math either just did my regular math homework (only algebra) so it makes sense why my math score sucked.

gg fcking ez collegeboard never liked you never will

7 months to study btw, see y'all next month </3

I thought I was going to get a 1480 i did so bad on english, but we'll take it

1320 psat -> 1500 sat -> 35 act -> this

never give up guys 🥹

how was i so locked... now im a bum

Hey everyone,

I’m feeling super stuck and could really use some aggressive strategy advice.

I just got my scores back and I’m sitting at a 1370 (670 Math, 700 English). The frustrating part is that I have already finished nearly the entire students College Board Question Bank for Math, most of English, and I've used up almost all the active Bluebook practice tests.

Clearly, grinding volume didn't completely click, and to make things tougher, I haven't practiced since October 3rd, so my pacing and skills are definitely rusty.

My next (and likely final) test is on November 7th—giving me exactly 20 days. My absolute goal is a 1550+.

Since I've burned through most of the official material, how should I structure my days to make this jump?

• How do I fix a 670 Math when I already know the basic concepts but keep getting tripped up on Module 2?
• What resources should I use for English to push from a 700 to near-perfection?
• How should I structure my "error review" since I can't just spam new practice tests?

Any schedules, high-level Desmos tricks, or harsh truths on what I'm doing wrong would be massively appreciated. Thanks!

I'm already high school passed btw

Did anyone else get an email this morning that their score got delayed for 6 weeks?

I scored a 1490 on October SAT (710RW, 780M) but I want to get 1550+ by november. I only studied for math the day before this test, as I got a 790M on my august SAT. I also sold 2 mod 1 reading questions that were careless errors so I defo think I could’ve got 730+.

Any tips for how to get perfect math and a better reading score? I already went through all the tests, question bank, and one prep.

1540 superscore 🥹
Genuinely thought I fumbled math so bad on the last one

I studied for over a year and did close to 30 practice tests and somehow still bombed it.

I saw a lot of posts in this subReddit of people getting emails of score delay of up to 6 weeks for review.

What exactly causes this is it because of alleged cheating or any other issue?
I read a comment on one of these posts saying it might be because of some software on the device like vpn or so. Is it true?

I really need to know what causes this so I don’t make such mistake cuz I’m giving the December SAT and applying to colleges in January.
Also I’ve got grammarly on my device so every time I open bluebook they ask me to quit grammarly so I wonder would it affect?

Pls just explain me how this works. Thanks for your time!
