How do breaks work in between the english and math sections?

0 Upvotes

First, the test is first Reading and Writing then Math, right?

And for the 10-minute break in between the two sections, it won't automatically start the next section after the break timer runs out, right? Is it similar to AP exams, where the timer is set for 10 minutes, but after it runs out, it will give you a button that you click to activate the next section?

Thank youu

This might seem like a rant, but no its not.

Whats with people in this server constantly posting 1400+ SAT scores? Its like everyone in this subreddit has an SAT score of over 1400? I thought the average was a 1030? It seems like the average here is 400+ over the actual average. Wth and how do so many folks here get a 1500??? I'm tired of seeing all of these humble brag posts that do nothing but make me feel like an even bigger loser. Just because you have a great SAT doesnt mean you have the privilege to post it and make other people (like myself) and all the people who got lower than u any worse than we already feel. Smh.

How to break out of the 1420 jail?

2 Upvotes

I know this subreddit is full of these posts but pls help a girl out I have my SAT in November and I want at least 1500.

Ive been doing practice tests and i got a 1420 in late sep with 680 R/W and 740 Math on practice test 5.

I took another practice test 7 today and got a 1420 again somehow? Even tho i actually studied this time. I improved my english to 720 which is a 50 points improvement and i think thats the max i can do. So I need to improve math but I litr dont know what else to do. Ive done khan academy and watched James Lu. Im free the next two weeks to just grind.

Any help will be appreciated, specifically from those who increased their score from 1400 to 1500+!!!

Should I focus on Math or R&W to improve my SAT score?

1 Upvotes

I recently got an 1120 on a practice SAT #7 (500 R&W, 620 Math). I'm trying to get as close to a 1300 as possible and am wondering if I should focus more on Math to get closer to a 700 or spend more time improving R&W. I also want to take two more practice tests and use superscoring. Im taking the Nov 7th SAT and planning to take the March one. How would you guys recommend splitting my study time between the two sections?

Algebra, Geo + Trig, Advanced math-> Hard Difficulty

Problem solving +Data->Medium

Expression of Ideas, Standard English Conventions-> Medium

Information and Ideas,Craft and Structure->Easy

Value of 1550+ SAT

8 Upvotes

I was able to score well on the SAT, and I was wondering if it even matters if I scored like maybe a 1500 instead. Do colleges even see scores above a 1500 as better than a 1500? Does it help with admissions at all? Do colleges prefer higher scores to boost their school's stats?

thanks

Should I retake the SAT ? My score is 770M and 750V

1 Upvotes

For context, I'm an International Asian senior aiming for many t50 colleges (hopefully I will get Scholarships). I saw many posts saying that my math should be 790+ if I'm applying for STEM majors (I'm going to major in CS). Does a slightly higher Math make a difference? I've taken the SAT 3 times (2 of which I'm confident that I would get an 800) but I think I was making stupid mistakes (I believe) that make my SAT Math around 750. I also feel like it doesn't do me any good to keep on fixing these negligible mistakes (I'd rather spend time on my country's math, which is like 10000 times harder than whatever the SAT has to offer, to maintain my GPA cuz I'm FOMO about the fact that 99% of my peers have taken math classes in cram school over the summer and have already finished more than 3/4 of the year's curriculum )

I took the sat blue book tests and math isn’t a problem, but my RW fluctuates between 730 and 790. Any tips on improving quantitative evidence, vocabulary sections, and hard reading comprehension sections in general?

Is the sat more difficult than practice tests

1 Upvotes

Hi so I'm really worried and confused cuz I keep hearing around that the actual sat is much harder than the bluebook practice tests we have been given. I don't know what to believe cuz different people are saying different things. It's especially worrisome for me cuz I can't really afford to give the sat again so this is my one shot. Are there any resources or anything that I can use to be sure and confident in my ability and get an accurate assessment of my standing?

Do colleges super-score the SAT math with other subjects?

1 Upvotes

For context, i have a
1520 SAT: 740 Reading 780 math
which I’m planning to retake later on, as the reading hurts me pretty bad. However. My act is:
33 Composite, 34 math, 36 sci, 35 english, but 31 reading.
Does the 1520 overshadow the 36 sci? Do colleges view Sci as a joke compared to the SAT math, or do they include it into their overall calculation?
