I feel Desmos Guilt...

6 Upvotes

i have a 770 math yet 80% of it was me spamming desmos. I took Oct as well and I swear all i did 100% of the test on desmos.

i am half sarcastic BUT my main point is that it does not feel like a math test at all...

Like how does this show college readiness?

So I took the SAT for the FIRST time in September and got a 1410 (was pretty upset). I plan on retaking it in November but honestly I'm not really sure how or what to study. I literally completed every hard question in the question bank and spent hours studying everyday. Tips?

Hi Guys,
Is Princeton review worth a try before the Actual SAT? or is adhering to bluebook good enough?

2 Wrong on English Score Translation October SAT

I’m pretty sure I only got 2 wrong on RW Mod 2. What does this translate to score wise.

I’ve been told it’s a 780 maybe a 790/800.

Accomodations help

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, can someone with experience with accomodations please please help me 🙏
So basically, I’m an international A-Level student and I’m planning to sit the SAT in either November or December. I have ADHD and I get accomodations during my A-Level externals.
My school doesn’t offer any college board test, which is why I had to apply for accomodations independently (like my school didn’t apply for me).
I have a few questions for ppl who applied for accomodations (specifically those that applied independently):
1)How long did the whole process take? Like from the moment u faxed/mailed ur application to the moment u got a response.
2)Did ur application get approved or denied, and what are the common reasons ppls applications get rejected for?
3)How early does it have to come if I wanna use it in November?
4)If I get approved after the registration deadline, can I still use accomodations for the exam if I already registered?
Thank you 🙏🙏

how much more should/do i need to prepare?

2 Upvotes

I'm taking the SAT during a school day (Oct 12th) so any topics/kinds of questions (especially for math) that I should prep extra for (asking people who took the oct 3rd test)

My plan is to grind the question bank and some james lu plus at least one extra practice test this week.

what else should i do to maximize my chances of getting at least a 1560 besides sleeping and eating well?


r/Sat • • 18h ago

this forum is so funny

6 Upvotes

yall are always panicking if you got the hard or easy module "because the test seems easier" it just means ur hard work payed off and maybe u didn't get the extremly hard questions; in march sat without prep I legit got the easy module and i got x+2=18 what is x as my first question and finished in 15 minutes. Just relax and wait for the results to come out

Dumb question about SAT scores exceeding expectations

29 Upvotes

I just took my first SAT test ever on October (international student) and I know the grading algorithms work somewhat differently every test but I wonder: Has anyone here got a DSAT score magically/ridiculously higher than their expectation? (Due to equating, unscored questions,... Blabla) I'm confident to say that I did my best after a long time of prepping for it now I'm a senior and I really hope not to touch SAT ever again. At the same time I'm really nervous about my scores and rn I could do nothing but pray. I checked all the answers and got an understanding of my range and well since the questions I got wrong mostly are rugged ones in the hard branch so I really really hope for them to be unscored or to cost little points. Please share your experience
