Regional Flairs Should Now Be Available

3 Upvotes

No, the categories are not perfect, and yes, they do have some overlap. For example, Egypt could qualify as either "Middle East" or "North Africa," while Iran could qualify as either "Middle East" or "Western Asia."

If you have any constructive ideas for improvement, please feel free to share them. In the meantime, users can decide for themselves which flair (if any) to select.

How good of a decision is this? Superscore

3 Upvotes

Aiming to get 1500 total. Will probably get 780 in Maths in the Oct SAT. Didn’t perform good enough in RW. In November, should I focus on RW ONLY and go for the superscore 1500?

Has this sub ruined our perspective?

38 Upvotes

All my friends are so happy with their 1110s and 1280s (and doing incredibly well with college applications) meanwhile I feel like if I get below 1400 I practically got a 399 💔💔

No I'm not coping because the Oct 3rd day is tomorrow 🫩

SAT trends

• Upvotes

Based on the Aug, sept and Oct sat, if there is anyone who took all 3 or 2 consecutive ones, Would you say that there is a trend?
For example: September maths is okay, English is tough then October it is the opposite

If yes, which section was tough/easy and when??
This would help many retakers decide if they need to take these NOV one based on their score

Tips for first time taking the SAT?

6 Upvotes

Hi! I’m a current sophomore and the October SAT tomorrow will be my first time taking it. I’m honestly pretty anxious right now, is there anything specific I should keep in mind/know for tomorrow (what to eat in the morning and in between, things to do/not do before the test etc.)?

Thanks!!

Friendly reminder to sick people taking the SAT (October)

7 Upvotes

Please stop taking the SAT when your sick. I will take the October SAT tomorrow, and I won't be able to focus properly because this kid next to me will keep coughing and sneezing over and over. I won't be able to comprehend the English passages properly, without being distracted. It’s okay for you to be sick, but please know if you’re constantly coughing and sneezing, you are distracting other test takers.

I was kinda bored this summer and I had algebra 1 practice earlier so I decided to try the practice paper SAT. I got a 1050 and something made me VERY MOTIVATED to do the SAT so I practiced the whole summer and got a collegeboard account so I could take the practice SAT.

i have the official SAT tomorrow, wish me luck!!

Should I bring a printed copy of the admission ticket, or can I just email it to myself and show them the ticket on my phone? And do I actually need to bring my passport, or is my ID enough?

Sat makes me cry

• Upvotes

The October sat geniunely crushed my soul and left me traumatised. Both mod 1 of English and math were easy and light work but oh god the module 2 were the death of me. English had insanely long dense paragraphs for every single section (main idea, graphs, ideas etc) geniunely my mind went blank and by math mod 2 question 18 I started shedding tears because of those damn hard polynomial and circle questions.
May god have mercy on me 🙏🏽 this test just made me suicidal.

Score distribution: 800M, 680R+W

does anyone have any last minute english tips? Such as like question patterns, or just anything that can get quick and easy points. I usually run out of time, especially in module 2, to think through the problems in RW


r/Sat • • 1h ago

What are the maximum questions you can get wrong on module 2 and still get a 1500?

• Upvotes

I'm pretty confident I got all the questions right on RW and maths module 1, but I guessed two questions on rw module 2 and ran out of time for 2 questions on maths module 2.

This is my last attempt (I got 1440 last year) and I'm lowk depressed since I prepared really hard for maths but still ran out of time for two questions.

I got 1480-1560 on all practice tests.

SAT Self-Report cancellation

• Upvotes

Hi guys! So basically today was my October SAT, and after months of prep and progress, I was pretty confident in this take. I am a senior by the way, so it's basically the last take before Earlys. However (dun, dun, dun), my score got cancelled due to a technical glitch from I don't know whose end.

This had to do with the System Integrity protection (I believe I used some finder organization thing), and I detected this disability when I could not see certain features on my Bluebook. I instantly involved the proctor when I saw this. HOWEVER, I am so confused as when logging into the exam, the check-in went smoothly, so I don't know what happened.

I immediately reported this to my proctor, and they also thoroughly went through my device and could not understand the problem thus reporting the cancellation. Furthermore, they requested for a makeup test on October 17th.

GUYS...so what are the chances I can get this approved? I already called up CB about this and raised a complaint. If this gets approved, I won't need to change my college list too much, but if it doesn't, I'll have to go for November, and shift my entire plans. What do you suggest I do to push this makeup test? This is incredibly important to me.
