i can't seem to get over 600 on sat math-does anyone know any good review course or tutor, besides princeton review which i've already taken, that could raise it to a 700?

I have the similiar problem, I can't get above 720 on the Math, there's always a few i misread.. I'm using Barrons Math Workbook right now, but using a ti 89 has helped alot. If you don't have one right now, go out and buy one. I;m sure it only will get you over 700.

Have you taken the test yet? If you don't score as high as you'd like, you can retake the course or get free additional tutoring lessons, from what I understand, under their guarantee. I would also suggest using SAT math prep books. The extra practice could make a big difference.

Don't listen to Johnny. He apparently believes that the 'better' the calculator one uses the higher his/her score. Well Johnny, I did not miss a question when I took the SAT math... and I only used my TI-28 to add a few numbers here and there. How do you explain this?

you're a genius...Well, when i fiqured out how to solve equations with the ti89, it saved me alot of time.

i dont think a calculator really helps that much-isn't it all about reasoning and understanding math? and cindy, i already took princeton review and it didnt really help much in math. i didn't take the actual sat yet though.

PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE, go out and buy a princeton review of kaplan math practice book or practice the 10 SATS Collegeboard book.
