not one bit. Who cares? You can take it over if you do bad. Anyway, what are you going to do, read the dictionary?

Kind of - just took practice tests over and over again. I've probably taken around 20 before the SAT's.

No. 1270. But I was transferring from JC to UC so they didn't even look at my scores, I took it to see what I'd get.

I got a 1390 after I had an eye injury earlier that week and was having alot of trouble reading. I had wanted a 1400 so I just said screw it, and lived with it.

i didn't sign up for an lsat class and did pretty ok on that too... though you're an idiot if you don't study or practice for it.

You can take classes for it. Like "Taming the SAT", I took that one. It did help my score. But then again, im a dumbass so....

You need a lot of time to study for the SAT. I tried studying the day before. It didn't really help. And i have a huge pile of vocab cards i barely looked at. HS, SAT, none of it will matter once you're in college.

u dont really need to study for it. just pay attention in english and math class. otherwise, how else will u learn the vocab? math is a piece of cake.

and are u taking the SAT IIs or something? Why is there writing ? Did something change in the past two years?

wow, i didn't study and i guess it shows compared to the scores being posted. i took it a couple times, but still didn't quite break 1000. just a few points shy everytime. but here i am....i have a bs in biology, and i'm in my 3rd year as a optometry student. i'm actually cramming for a test tomorrow too...:D my grades and scores have greatly improved since the SAT though...i guess i'm a little more motivated and responsible now that i'm a bit older. ;)
