is doing well on TOEFL an option? Or did you already do that. Vocab vocab, just read the newspaper (english of course like New York Times) or read magazines, also flashcards are helpful

Well i didn't get a 700+, i got a 700

But still...i felt that all the high frequency vocab word lists in books such as Barron's, Kaplan's etc...helped a LOT! So many of the words did show up on the actual test...i only wish i had more time tos tudy them.

yes..READ READ READ..but if you don't like to, or don't have time...just try and take words from as many high frequency lists as possible

I'm shooting for a 800 next time i take the SAT.
Good Luck!
