Real SAT

[ClassyLady]

You have probably just taken the Black SAT, but what about the real one? The Scholastic Aptitude Test that most people take to get in to college. What was your score on that one? How many times did you have to take it to get that score?

Please be truthful. We all know that the SAT is more a measure of how well you take test than it is of your intelligence.

I took it twice and got the same score both times (my math went up by ten and my verbal went down by ten, so it evened out). I got a 1350.

I took the SAT once and the ACT twice
SAT - 1200 - even steven 600 math/600 verbal
ACT - 26 the first time 27 the second time

1180 and I took it once, and that was in my junior year of high school, damn that was a long time ago.

i took it once and got an 1140, which was enough for automatic acceptance to the school of my choice. had i known better, i would've taken it again to score higher and get more scholarship $$$

Well I got a 1502 my senior year in high school. But that is was only because (in part I think) because of the type of schools I attended we were prepared for the ACT(31) and SAT from 6th until 12th grade. We had to attend test prep classes for credit. I was just prepared really well.

[AKA2D '91]

I didn't take the SAT.

I took the ACT and scored a 21, without the assistance of special classes or preparation courses.

[Alias_01]

Depending on your region of the U.S. and what type of colleges you are applying for you may take either the ACT/SAT or both. I only took the ACT and scored a 21

ACT 23
SAT 1100

SAT 950 or something like that, I just remember I was devastated because it was under 1000. And can I just tell yall, the night before, I went out to a party with a friend of mine. We get home at 3am, and he wants to study. I'm like, please. Then, I fell asleep during the damn test. He got a 1300 on his SAT. Can you even believe that mess? lol

ACT 23

I didn't take any classes, and I took each of them once.

I also attended a magnet school that prepared you for those tests from 7th-12th grades. I took them both once in the 10th grade SAT-1460 ACT-32. But you know when I went to college a lot of schools had problems accepting the scores because they can't be more than 3 years old and mine were close.

[Steeltrap]

My SAT was 960, 560 of that was verbal.
That's why I'm in journalism now, lol.
I made no effort on math, and I do regret that.

[princessbee21]

I scored a 1060 on my SAT, 640 of which was on the verbal portion. I guess I should be an English major instead of Sociology/Social Work ...anyhow, I scored a 22 on the ACT...I did go to Sylvan Learning Centers for SAT prep courses. I think that they were pretty beneficial, a lil pricey, but helpful nonetheless...

[ShakespareDST]

Well I am not even going to front...I scored a 810 the first time I took the SAT in 10th grade. I partially blame that on DC public schools which did not prepare us for taking such exams. My mother decided to send me to Kaplan which is an SAT prep organization, for the summer...and the next time I took it I scored a 1240. Surprising how well you do when you know what to study.

[SweetestDiva]

1280... that was the second time. The first was a 1220. My mama put me in this ghetto 6 wk. SAT prep class which taught me nothing. However, I did meet this real cute guy - fun while it lasted.
