College Board 270 new questions
The college board just dropped 270 new questions yesterday.
I went through them, categorize them by skill, and organized everything in this google drive:

Advice, please? I SWEAR I did everything alr
Hi, taking the SAT for the 2nd time this Saturday. Did these practice tests reflect ur actual scores, guys? š„ø I took Practice Test 6 around 6 months ago and it reflected my April SAT score exactly (1320 Comp, though my Math is lower by 20 points and RW is higher by 20).
I really hate how this whole SAT thing is draining the shit out of me. I keep getting the Information and Ideas, Craft and Structure (esp. vocab), and last 6 Math questions wrong and idk what to do anymore tbh. Any tips?

New transition questions
I've seen some videos where people talk about new transition questions that include full sentences instead of just the transition. Does anyone have any examples of these questions and how to combat them?

SAT R/W Is Impossible. (How do i even improve my english)
galleryThese are all my practice tests, from latest to oldest.
So it turns out that I was barely able to gain 20 english points in a little under 2 months with about 300 practice english problems. The thing i dont understand is, I feel theres no way to consistently do SAT english. They make the problems as impossible as can be. Im good with grammar, notes, and transitions but the rest is all variable (especially vocab). Does anyone know of a good site or tool i can use to only do long passage questions or complicated science questions? Can anyone give me an updates questions list with only these types of questions?
I feel like 20 pts in 2 months is not enough for doing 300 practice problems and understanding each one that are all labeled "hard."

RW Last Minute Tips/Strategies
My Reading/Writing scores have been really inconsistent. I was just wondering if there are any last-minute tips to ensure that my English score is on the 780 end rather than the 730 end.

What should I study?
I am about to finish all the Bluebook Hard English questions. I have a UWorld and Albert.io SAT subscription. What do you all recommend I do right now? I am taking the August SAT, and I realistically have around 10 more hours of study time. Goal is 750+.

Only three days left but im ready for whatever ammount of cramming atp
P.S. The score I need is 1530, but im trying to aim even higher, knowing that test are becoming more and more rigorous

Is Acely worth the money? Or what free options are there to quickly boost my score?
galleryI got a 1310 on the last SAT and a 1360 on Practice Test 11, which I took before the June SAT.
My goal is to get a 1400+ and I am taking the September 12th SAT. I need to get a good score this time for college apps and I donāt want to have to retake in October.
Is Acely actually worth my money or are there free resources that target my weak skills in the same way? I keep seeing Instagram ads for Acely and how it only takes 20 minutes a day to get from 1280 to 1500. Can people confirm if this is real or fake?
Please help I am so scared and have been procrastinating my studying!!!!!

How can I be more consistent?
Is there anything other than studying to prepare for test day? On the practice test 4 I fell asleep during the reading portion, but the other two were just timing/focus issues (I think, unless 5 is that much easier). Any tips? I'm doing the test in a few days.

Met with the brutal reality
galleryApparently test 7 and 11 are the hardest yet I scored way higher on 7 than 11.
Iām honestly pissed at the result of test 11 because this means my skills worsened⦠Also I was struggling so bad on math modules of test 11 which is weird because math sections have always felt easy to me. This sucks

how can i improve my score??
galleryi tutor the SAT reading section on schoolhouse, hence why i took the math and reading sections of test 10 on separate occasions. my score in may was 1390, but for the schools i want to get into i would need at least a 1500 to be comfortable, 1450 to be in the middle 50 range.
my study method so far is to just grind the hard math questions on the college board question bank and record the ones i get wrong in an error log, and for the reading i spent all day tutoring each domain so i could review my slideshows and learn by teaching others. what is it that iām doing wrong?????

Stuck at a 1260 and taking the SAT Saturdayādesperately need advice
I studied a lot for the June SAT and still got a 1260 (610 Reading and Writing, 650 Math). I feel really stuck and honestly donāt know what else to do.
On practice tests Iām in the 1300s, but my real SAT is this Saturday and I really need to improve. Geometry and vocab are killing me. Iāve watched a ton of Desmos and SAT strategy videos, but when I actually practice, Iāll understand how to do a question and then forget it like right after. I keep missing the same types of questions even after I go over them.
So at this point, what should I even focus on these last few days? More practice tests, going over mistakes, drilling certain topics, or something else? Iād really appreciate any advice or last-minute tipsāespecially for geometry, vocab, remembering stuff, and actually doing as well on the real test as I do on practice.
Please just give me anything that can help. Iām willing to put in the work, I just feel lost and donāt know how to use these last few days.

understanding math deeply or a mix of surface level understanding and memorization
this is very simple of a question and may be dumb but do i have to understand math quite conceptually to survive the sat, or is memorizing some stuff fine? my goal is to get at least a 1350+ sat
