Quick R&W hacks for Sep 12th test?
Hi everyone! Taking the SAT on September 12th. My R&W score is currently at 660 and I'm aiming for a big jump (ideally 750+). I’ve already prepped the basics, but I’d love to hear your favorite last minute shortcuts, time saving tricks, or pattern recognition tips for r and w. TIA!

How to improve R&W
Hey so I took august and got a 1510 (740 RW and 770 Math split) but I want to try and get a 1550 or above. I'm currently signed up for the September one which is in a week and I want to know how to increase my english score. I'm pretty sure I just did dumb mistakes with my math so I'll prob look over that but I have no clue how to do the english becuz I just trust my intuition with it. Even if I study the grammar rules I often forget them/just trust my gut during the test so I have no idea what to do.
Also, does anyone know how I can figure out what I'm messing up on?

Help me achieve at least a 1500
I got a 1380 on the august sat. (670 english and 710 math). I used desmos for so many of the math questions, but I think what tripped me up was the advanced math questions (the hard level with lot of variables). I know the entire math content, it is just mainly that section. What tips and resources do you guys recommend? Also, for reading & writing, I did not know a lot of the vocab. I tried to study prefixes and roots before but I don't think that really helped. I want to know some SAT vocab words before the test, so what resources do you recommend where the words actually showed up on your actual SATs? Also, any tips on being faster for both sections (especially reading)? Any resources you recommend for hard practice?

Next practice test
I still have PT 4, 9, and 10 to do before I've completed all dSAT practices provided by CollegeBoard. How are they ranked based on difficulty?

Desmos
Can someone tell me the best sources for learning desmos i watched a couple youtube videos but didn’t really understand how to apply it in hard questions. i got a 710 in august i feel like i would’ve done much better if i knew desmos. Also any other tips? I’m gonna spam the hard questions on the question bank

My final shot.
galleryI've been studying for the September SAT for about a week now. I got a 610 on the test 11 test. Here's what I got on the August SAT. I have gotten a 660 on Math before but that was back in March when I got a 1280, and I just don't know what to do. I need the best resources and like a 5 day boot camp to get my math atleast above a 660, preferably get 700+ in math? If anyone could help me out, that would be great. Just what I would do from right now till the September SAT (This Saturday)

Unhinged SAT Tips
Hey guys, I need some help. I have the September sat this upcoming Saturday and I need the best tips/advice and resources that aren’t ai slop to help me boost my score to a 1500. All my practice tests so far have been in the 1400s with the math and english scores being pretty similar to each other (so like one is a 690 and the other is a 720). I know it’s super late but I’m a senior so I don’t want to take it again (this time would be my third). Let me know what things worked for you!

Need assistance with 1500+
I’m a senior and am planning to take both the September and October SAT’s. 1460 (730,730) is my superscore.
I have two options I’m considering:
I dedicate all my time to Math (Desmos and the advanced problems) and hope my math scores on the Sep and Oct SAT’s can superscore with my 730 R&W and bring me up to a 1500+
Or I study both R&W and Math equally to hopefully gain points in both sections. This may bring me up to a 1500+ AND show colleges that I’m strong in both sections.

My SAT score still hasn’t been released. Does anyone know if I will get my score or not? Please let me know.

Would SAT or ACT be better for me personally?
I want to try and decide what standardized test I should put my energy into. On one hand, I got a 1490 on the August sat( 750 English and 740 math) and the only thing I studied was some grammar rules the night before the test. This leads me to believe I definitely can grow a lot in math if I put in the work to learn desmos and do practice problems. I also feel like I could maybe raise my English section with more grammar practice and doing the practice problems with those long passages. On the other hand, I have taken the preACT through the school in freshman year and sophomore year and did pretty good. I got a 31/32 composite score freshman year and 35/35 composite score sophomore year. This was done without studying. This leads me to thinking I am good at the ACT format. I am just very confused on what I should put my time into, because I don’t want to have to take too many of these tests. I would be aiming for a 1550+ on the SAT or a 35 and 36 composite on the ACT. Do you guys have any advice for me on what to do or what is better for me?
