Howdy,

I’m taking the SATs again sometime this year but I don’t know how to study. I’ve been studying for a while doing practice tests and learning words, but I keep on screwing up on the practice tests - the SAT hates me! I’m a pretty good student in school but for the SATs, I just can’t get myself to answer most questions correctly. I’m aiming for a score of 2100+ (the new SAT is /2400 now). I got in the 1900s last time but I didn’t expect the grammar portion because it was the first new SAT format so I screwed it up. Also, the test is too ■■■■ long! Near the end, I was so sleepy that I would read those super long passages and forget what they were about when I finished - the test was 4 hours! (including the three 5 minute brakes).

Please share any stories/scores/tips. Thanks. :thumb:
