Wow, I'm the first one ever to write in this section!
I just received my October SAT Reasoning Test scores:

Critical Reading: 680
Math: 700
Writing: 680

Multiple Choice: 68
Essay: 9

Combined Score: 1380
Total Score: 2060

I know a lot of you have higher results than this, but for me this is a complete success.
I wish you all even better results than mine!
Success attend you!

Congratulations ! You should be proud of your scores.

Great job. Those are excellent scores, for anybody. Did you find it hard?

It was hard and it lasted much longer than I expected (it took us an hour and a half to get in the test room, register, and listen to the instructions we were all aware of), but after Section 2 I did not feel stressed anymore. I had done a lot of full practice tests (they really are the key to success on the SAT) and had taken a two-week SAT intensive summer course. My arguments on the essay were quite personal. Luckily, the result shows they were also relevant.
To everyone taking the SAT in the future: don't be afraid of the test. Yes, it's hard and long, but with enough practice and calmness you'll do fine.

To Erin: I really like TestMagic. Not only it helped me with my exams but I also met a few very nice and ambitious people here. I intend to participate in the forums much more actively right after my application process is over in a month or so. Thanks for creating and maintaining such a cool place!

Good job! I still could not understand why my writing section sucked so badly, especially the multiple choice part. It's over anyways. Try hard everybody

Hey Codename Gordon,
Can you tell me how you raise your critical reading scores. Right now, I can't crack 600. What do you do? Any suggestions would help.

Thank you a lot.

Codename Gordon · 03-22-2008, 05:02 PM

iahme, the most efficient way to raise your score (at least this was was the case with me) is to do all the practice tests you can find, but after you have acquainted yourself with enough words from the 3500-word SAT vocabulary. Make yourself a schedule for learning depending on the time left to the exam date. Reading boks and all sorts of other texts also helps, of course, but the process is much slower.

Good luck on the exams!

Erin, can you do something to motivate people to submit their scores?

Yes, I'm working on that. I'm hoping to build an app that people can use to keep track of this kind of stuff.

Thanks for checking back! How's school going?

Codename Gordon · 03-23-2008, 11:19 AM

School is going great. I'm now a freshman at The American University in Bulgaria and I love it. Courses are tough and I hardly find time to attend to TestMagic, for which I apologize.

We have over 75000 members! Great!
