3 things you can't avoid in life: death, taxes and SATs?

Question

I am a sophmore in high school. AFter seeing my practice SAT tests, the average score has been around the high 1800s. What are hte chances of me raising it by november this year? and if so how many points? I mm soo stressed

Answer 1

Assuming you are American and middle class, yes your list is correct. ;)

Don't stress out too much about your scores. Remember that even if you don't get into Harvard, there are literally thousands of other schools and in the long run, it won't matter that much where you went. But I would say you still have lots of time to improve (almost a whole year). Keep studying! have you thought about taking a course, perhaps kalan or Princeton review? They really help out. I am doing Princeton Review for my LSAT preparation and have found it's enormously useful.

Good luck!!!!

Answer 2

The only advice I can give you (and you have probably heard it already) is to study more in the area's you're weak in, and study less the area's your stronger in. Honestly I would not freak out about it, the more stressed you are the harder the test will be.

Answer 3

Try taking the ACT instead.

How many points you raise it all depends on you. Raising it 100 in each section is certainly possible (I did). Most people study in the summer.

Answer 4

you can avoid all but death
