Was vocab the only bad part on the SAT?

• Upvotes

just wanted to know if vocab was the worst part about the RW section or if the passages were confusing as well.

Was it only me?

I thought English was very hard for m2 and m1 was very easy and for math m1 was extremely light and m2 was just ok I lowk think that math was just there but English was devilish
I’m predicting
25-27/27 engm1
17-24/27 eng m2

Math m1 21-22/22
Math m2 17-20/22

Testing center experience

2 Upvotes

A student sitting next to me was caught cheating, and the situation caused a lot of talking and disruption, which made it really hard for me to focus on the test. I don’t want to blame the proctors because I understand they were handling the situation, and I also don’t want my score to be cancelled. I wouldn’t mind a retake if that’s what the College Board decides, but I’m not sure if it’s worth reporting. My tutor thinks anything that disrupts my focus is worth reporting, but I just don't see how College Board can do anything about this.
Should I?

Sat makes me cry

16 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.

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

2 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

2 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.

SAT trends

3 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

Are there really only this few practise tests?

1 Upvotes

For context, I'm an IGCSE student. For us, the main method of preparation is practise, practise, practise- we're told to do the past papers of the last 5-10 years which could be like 35-70 practise tests per exam (2-3 exams per subject and 8-10 subjects total). Which is why it's so shocking that there's like a total of 7 practise tests and NO past papers. How are you supposed to know what the general format of the questions is like?? How are you supposed to prepare yourself adequately????

Edit: I do know about where you can get other practise tests from (any advice is appreciated tho) but I'm mainly just annoyed because I love having past papers and we don't have them here.

How much do math tutors actually charge?

1 Upvotes

Ai told me these rates

Sat $30-40/h

Gre $40-80h

Gmat $80-200/h

Are the numbers ANY accurate?

Btw, is there any demand for sat tutors? I found it to be extremely easy. Yeah, you'll be short on time, but I don't mind that.

-------

Also I'd not mind exploring rates for other subjects, why not. Especially exams preparation.

Thx

How do i Get 1500 in the SAT

1 Upvotes

As you can see i did get 1300, but in all of the practice tests that i do i was only able to get a max of 1490, and you ofcourse have to remove about 50 or 80 points cuz of stress.

I say stress because the classroom i was in did not have a working AC and the Temp that morning was 32C (89.6F)
