CIPHER_one Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 I take them for the first time tomorrow. Any tips? And what did you guys get? I can't believe there hasn't been an SAT scores thread...has there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swif1 Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 i did shitty! first time 800 i cant even get passed 970 :mad: but i did a lot better on my ACTs but they are both hard SATs questions are basic...you just need to know what formulas to use and know how to decipher the question....filtor out the needless info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sectorTVA Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 got a 950 keep in mind, they deduct a point if you get one wrong, but if you leave an answer blank no points are deducted....so if youre pretty sure on a guess, go ahead and mark an answer, if youre not sure at all and have no idea, it might be good too leave it blank as no points will be deducted or added...dont over use that strategy though, you wouldnt want half your test blank....

vinyl junkie Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 when i took the sat i got there just a couple of minutes late. I opened my trunk and grabbed my jacket (it was fucking freezing) and forgot i had a big bottle of wild turkey wrapped up in it... I pulled out my jacket and the bottle smashed on the ground in front of the school. I stressed and dropped my jacket and picked up the pieces of glass and threw them in the trunk. Then I picked up my jacket only to realize i had dropped it in the puddle, and it now reeked of booze. I walked into that test late and absolutley stinking of wild turkey. I got an 1140, but it's now been 5 years and i still haven't figured out why i took that stupid test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaos is me Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 try and eliminate as many answers as you can if you have to guess, so that at least it is an educated guess, and you have a better chance at the correct answer. don't get caught up on one question you can't get, if you can't work through it right away, skip it and come back to it. if you don't know at all, don't answer it, skipping it you don't lose any points.

swif1 Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 oh yeah, my guidance conselor also told me that...instead of bubbling an answer everytime you solve it, instead, just dont bubble all the answers to that page until youre through with it...in other words, solve all questions, write answer beside the Q in the book...then bubble all the answers in the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cracked Ass Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 I did very well on the SAT, but it didn't do me any fucking good overall. Just made me look like an underachiever when I got erratic grades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suburbian bum Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 Make sure you have enough to eat, they are really long, make sure your mentally prepared get lots of sleep. I had to take them in 8th grade, I got an 1120 then, this year i have to take the acts. So luckily for me i get to take the sat's about 3 or 4 times then i get to keep my highest score.

Guest imported_El Mamerro Posted February 8, 2002 Share Posted February 8, 2002 1350, but I'm still sharing studio space with people who got 700's and 1520's in art school, so I guess it didn't matter a damn bit.

jah Posted February 8, 2002 Share Posted February 8, 2002 Originally posted by sectorTVA got a 950 keep in mind, they deduct a point if you get one wrong, but if you leave an answer blank no points are deducted....so if youre pretty sure on a guess, go ahead and mark an answer, if youre not sure at all and have no idea, it might be good too leave it blank as no points will be deducted or added...dont over use that strategy though, you wouldnt want half your test blank.... they deduct one fourth of a point if u get one wrong. so if u can elimiate teh choices down to four, u hace an alright chance if u guess. they dont deduct one poine for a wrong answer.
