How to Get a Perfect 1600 SAT Score, by an Expert Full Scorer
How to Get a Perfect 1600 SAT Score, by an Expert Full Scorer Posted by Allen Cheng SAT The maximum score on the SAT is a 1600. Out of the two million students who take the test every year, only about 500 get the highest possible SAT score. This elusive perfect score catapults you to the top of high school academic achievement and can be a big boost to your college applications. I scored perfect scores on the SAT. I actually scored two perfect scores—a 1600 in 2004 when I was in high school, and a 2400 in March 2014 when I took it ten years later. Most of the advice out there about how to get a perfect score come from people who didn’t get perfect scores. In this exclusive article, I’ll be breaking down exactly what it takes, and the ruthless techniques I used to get a perfect score. Quick Disclaimer Let me start with a few disclaimers. I’m a humble person, and I don’t like talking about my accomplishments without good reason. I know a lot of you are looking to score the highest SAT score possible, so I’ve written this guide to help you get there. So whatever I say here, please take it as advice from a mentor eager to help, not as a braggart strutting his stuff. Also, I co-founded the company PrepScholar—we create online SAT/ACT prep programs that adapt to you and your strengths and weaknesses. I want to emphasize that you do NOT need to buy a full prep program to get a great score. If you follow the principles below and are very driven, you’ll do just fine. I do believe, however, that PrepScholar is the best digital SAT program available right now, especially if you find it hard to organize your prep and don’t know what to study. I’ll refer to decisions we made in creating the program to flesh out principles I discuss below. My Perfect SAT Scores — How I Know This Works For full transparency, let me show you my personal score report. This is a screenshot from my College Board SAT Organizer: I took the two SATs 10 years apart. The 2004 test was in an old format of the SAT and was scored out of 1600. I took the new test in 2014 and scored a 2400. (Yes, I took the SAT as an adult. Besides getting funny looks from high school students, I wanted to go through the experience anew so I knew what my students at PrepScholar were going through.) While the format of the SAT has changed since I took it, many of the principles are still the same. In the current SAT, there are still Reading, Math, and Writing questions and you need to get most if not all of them right to get a perfect score. Doing so still requires lots of practice and a deep understanding of how the exam works. What It Takes to Get a 1600 on the SAT At the top end of the scoring range, the SAT is not forgiving. You need to aim for perfection. In the past, we could calculate fairly precisely how many questions you needed to get right in order to get a perfect score. Unfortunately, the new adaptive format makes those calculations irrelevant. For now, we have to assume you cannot miss any questions if you want a perfect score on the digital SAT. Essentially, you need to aim for perfection during your prep. If you’re consistently missing one or more questions on each section, you’re not performing consistently enough to be safe for a 1600. We’ll go into more detail about this below. One last question to answer before my actual advice: But Wait…Are You Just Smart? Will This Advice Work for Me? You may have heard about top scoring students who just rolled out of bed, strolled to the SAT test center, and scored the highest possible SAT score without any prep. This was not me. Some people like the above may in fact exist, but they’re rare. In high school, I was naturally stronger at math—I participated in math and science competitions—and I could reliably get 800’s on the math section. However, my reading and writing needed work; I consistently got in the 700 range. This is already pretty high, but it wasn’t enough for the top schools I was aiming for. The big problem was that I wasn’t accustomed to the SAT reading passages and the types of questions they asked. It took a lot of hard work for me to learn how the SAT works, how it tries to trick students, and how to find a strategy that worked for myself so I could reliably get top scores. My co-founder at PrepScholar had a similar story. Since I’m older, I also have the benefit of seeing whether my methods worked over time, or just on the SAT. Emphatically, the principles below have worked throughout my academic career. Here’s another example. As an undergraduate in college, I planned to attend medical school, so I had to take the MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test). In my view, this is a much harder test than the SAT. It covers many more topics: general chemistry, organic chemistry, physics, biology, and verbal reasoning. Furthermore, you’re competing with pre-med’s across the nation, people who are naturally driven and competing to get into medical school, not just the average high school student. When I started studying for the MCAT, I scored around the low 30’s. The test is scored out of 45, and it’s curved very aggressively. Again, this was already well above average, but it wasn’t enough for the top medical schools I was going for. So I worked hard. I put in the time, covered all the subjects I needed to know, and was ruthless about my prep. In the very end, I scored a 44: As the testing organization notes, this is in the 99.9 percentile rank, with 0.0% achieving this score (this figure is rounded). I had multiple medical advisers tell me that they

The Grammar Rules You Must Know for the Digital SAT / New SAT or EST 1
The Grammar Rules You Must Know for the Digital SAT / New SAT or EST 1 The digital SAT’s Reading and Writing section contains questions that test your knowledge of grammar and writing style. By learning the grammar rules that are tested on SAT Reading and Writing, you’ll be preparing yourself to do exceptionally well on this section, and you’ll be one step closer to achieving your target score. In this article, I’ll explain the most important SAT grammar rules and provide related examples from the official practice tests. How to Use This Guide The SAT Writing and Language section contains 54 questions in total. About 12 to 15 of the questions on the digital SAT will relate to punctuation and/or grammar. Based on the content of the practice tests released by the College Board, many of these grammatical rules are likely to be tested on every SAT. In this guide, I’ll provide explanations and examples for the grammar rules that are tested most often on the digital SAT. Each of the practice questions comes from Khan Academy, which is a great resource to learn about different concepts tested on every section of the SAT. The Grammar Rules You Must Know for the Test Here are the nine SAT grammar rules that you need to learn and understand before test day. #1: Keep Verb Tenses Consistent The general rule regarding verb consistency is that verbs should remain consistent in tense or form throughout a sentence. Here’s an example of a consistency error: Last week, Frank rented a car and drives to Las Vegas. The verb “drives” should be in the past tense. Not only should “drives” be consistent with the past tense “rented,” but also the phrase “Last week” indicates that this was something that happened in the past. This is the corrected version of the sentence: Last week, Frank rented a car and drove to Las Vegas. Also, on the SAT, the verb tenses of surrounding sentences can provide context clues for the proper tense to use in a given sentence to maintain consistency. Here’s another example of a consistency error: Trenton lives in a rural area. He enjoyed the peace and quiet. The shift from the present tense “lives” to the past tense “enjoyed” doesn’t make sense in context. Here is a corrected version of the sentence: Trenton lives in a rural area. He enjoys the peace and quiet. SAT Example In this example, the simple present tense “cover” is the standard way to express statements of fact. Simple present tense also corresponds with the tense of the other verbs in the passage like “use” and “capture”. Therefore, the correct answer is A. #2: Subjects and Verbs Must Agree Subjects and verbs must agree, meaning that you must use the singular form of a verb with a singular subject and the plural form of a verb with a plural subject. Here’s an example: Incorrect: High school students loves learning grammar rules. Correct: High school students love learning grammar rules. If the verb is in the present tense and the subject is in the third person (he/she/it/they), the verb usually ends in “s” in the singular form and doesn’t in the plural form. In the example sentence, the subject is “students,” which is plural; therefore the verb should be in the plural form. On the SAT, subject verb agreement questions can be more difficult because there may be a phrase separating the subject from the verb. Check out this example: Incorrect: The members of the committee meets every Tuesday. Correct: The members of the committee meet every Tuesday. The subject of the sentence is “members,” which is plural. Therefore, the verb should be in the plural form. The prepositional phrase “of the committee” separates the subject from the verb. If a verb is underlined on the SAT, make sure that you identify the subject that corresponds with that verb to ensure that the subject and verb agree. Also, keep in mind that a subject can never be part of a prepositional phrase. SAT Example To determine if there’s a subject verb agreement error, we have to identify the subject that corresponds with the verb “skimps.” What rarely skimps? The restaurants. The subject, restaurants, is plural, therefore the verb phrase must also be plural. “Skimps,” “is” and “has” are also singular forms; only option B, with “skimp” is plural. Therefore, Choice B is the correct answer. #3: Pronouns Must Agree With Their Antecedents in Number This rule means that a plural pronoun must refer to a plural noun and a singular pronoun must refer to a singular noun. Here’s an example of a pronoun number agreement error: Kristin sold their car. The pronoun “their” is referring to the car of Kristin. Because Kristin is one person and “their” is a plural pronoun, this sentence has a pronoun agreement error. This is the corrected version: Kristin sold her car. SAT Example In this example, the antecedent, jurors, is plural. Therefore, the pronoun must also be plural. “Him,” “her,” and “it” are all singular. “Them” is plural, therefore, Choice B is the correct answer. #4: Use Apostrophes Correctly to Form Plurals To make a plural noun that doesn’t own anything, add s to the end of a singular noun. You do not use an apostrophe to create plural nouns: Error: Every morning, many hawk’s circled the field, looking for prey. Fix: Every morning, many hawks circled the field, looking for prey. To make a possessive plural noun, add an apostrophe to the end of a plural noun: Art Deco furniture is marked by the artist’s use of geometric shapes, curves, strong colors, and new materials, such as plastics. SAT Example “Advisor” is not plural, but it is possessive, so it needs an apostrophe before the “s.” “Talents” is plural, but not possessive, so it needs an “s” at the end with no apostrophe. Choice C is correct because it follows these guidelines. #5: Use Apostrophes Correctly to Form Possessives The SAT tests you on how to use apostrophes to correctly form possessives. Luckily, the rules for forming possessives are pretty straightforward. If the word is singular or plural but doesn’t end in “s,” then

The New SAT vs. the ACT
The New SAT vs. the ACT: Full Breakdown Posted by Alex Heimbach SAT VERSUS ACT , NEW SAT For the past decade or so, the SAT has come under increasing scrutiny for its confusing structure, trick questions, and obscure vocabulary. Meanwhile, the ACT is often seen as the fairer test, more closely based in what students learn in school. As you might have heard, the College Board undertook a radical overhaul of the SAT that went into effect in March 2016 and, in many ways, made it much more similar to the ACT. Adding to the confusion is the fact that ACT, Inc., also made some minor changes to the ACT. What are the main differences between the current versions of the two tests? The short answer is that the SAT and ACT are now quite similar. The changes have eliminated many of the two tests’ major differences in both style and content. Nonetheless, there remain important variations—some long-standing and some newly introduced. I’m going to start by talking about what the SAT and ACT look like in general, and then I’ll break down the new similarities and unique characteristics of each test, section by section: Brief Timeline of Changes to the SAT and ACT Before we get into the key differences between the two tests, I’ve included a basic timeline of when the changes to each exam went into effect below: As you can see, the ACT, the SAT, and even the PSAT have all undergone noticeable changes in the past few years. Yet while the content and format of the ACT has stayed mostly the same, both the SAT and PSAT have been completely revamped (or, rather, redesigned). Now that you understand when these big changes happened, let’s begin our analysis by comparing the overall structures of the current SAT and ACT. SAT vs ACT: Overall Test Structure One of the goals of the SAT overhaul was to make the test more straightforward, so many of its structural oddities, such as the wrong-answer penalty, were eliminated. The College Board also streamlined the SAT structure by including only one section of each type (except for Math, which has two subsections now) rather than three. The ACT structure, on the other hand, has stayed mostly the same. The biggest changes to the test mainly targeted the Writing (essay) section, and that’s it. Let’s go over the specific layouts of the two tests so you can better understand the similarities and differences between them. Timing and Sections The current SAT has one Reading section and one Writing section. The Math section is divided into a No Calculator Test and a Calculator Test (meaning you may not use your calculator on the former but may on the latter). In addition, there is one Essay section, which is optional. The four sections are always in the same order. The entire SAT is three hours without the Essay, and three hours and 50 minutes with the Essay. The exact breakdown looks like this: SAT Section Total Time # of Questions 1. Reading 65 minutes 52 2. Writing and Language 35 minutes 44 3. Math No Calculator 25 minutes 20 4. Math Calculator 55 minutes 38 5. Essay (Optional) 50 minutes 1 prompt By contrast, the basic ACT structure and timing have not changed, with the exception of the new essay section, which is longer. Here is the breakdown of the ACT’s timing and questions: ACT Section Total Time # of Questions 1. English 45 minutes 75 2. Math 60 minutes 60 3. Reading 35 minutes 40 4. Science 35 minutes 40 5. Writing (Optional) 40 minutes 1 prompt As you can see, the format of the current SAT is more similar to that of the ACT than to that of its previous incarnation. While there’s no Science section on the SAT, it contains sections on Reading, Writing/English, and Math, just like the ACT does. It also has an optional Essay section like the ACT (before, the SAT Essay was mandatory!). Scoring The 2016 SAT redesign also involved major changes to the scoring system; we’ll go through these one at a time: On the other hand, ACT scoring stayed mostly the same. You get four section scores, each on a scale of 1-36. These are then averaged to create a composite ACT score, also on a scale of 1-36. The exception is ACT Writing. This section is separate from your composite ACT score and scored on a scale of 2-12. Like the SAT Essay, it’s scored across multiple domains, which are as follows: Each of these subscores is between 2 and 12, and the average of these four subscores is your ACT Writing score. Now that we’ve covered the big-picture changes, let’s move on to the nitty-gritty of each section of the SAT and ACT. Jason Parrish/Flickr SAT/ACT Reading Section SAT Reading is the section that’s most similar to its previous incarnation. However, there are still some big changes to note. One is that the SAT Reading section only includes longer passages. Without Sentence Completions or short passages, this section now looks a lot more like the ACT Reading section, which contains a series of 500-750 word passages followed by several questions. Also, thanks to a recent change to the ACT, both tests feature paired passages. These are just the basic similarities of the two tests’ Reading sections, but how specifically do these two sections differ? The chart below shows the specifications for each test: SAT Reading ACT Reading Total Time 65 minutes 35 minutes # of Questions 5 passages, 52 questions 4 passages, 40 questions Passage Types 1 US/World Literature, 2 History/Social Studies, 2 Science 1 Prose Fiction/Literary Narrative, 1 Social Sciences, 1 Humanities, 1 Natural Sciences Question Types Main Idea, Vocab-in-Context, Inference, Evidence Support, Data Reasoning, Technique, Detail-Oriented Main Idea, Vocab-in-Context, Inference, Detail-Oriented SAT Reading Although the Sentence Completions and short passages have been eliminated, the remaining long reading passages look more or less the same as they always have, with a few exceptions: ACT Reading The big difference between ACT Reading and SAT Reading remains how you need to budget time. Also, while the SAT is more focused on analyzing specific points in a passage and understanding how the author constructs an argument, the ACT deals more with reading comprehension. Here are some of the key
