I've been studying pretty diligently for the last month. I haven't really practised much at all before i took the psat's and got 490 verbal and 540 math without studying too much. I took the test a couple more times in the "10 real sat's" book and it was around 1100 for most of the time about 520 verbal and 580 math. I also bought the book "cracking the sat" and use most of their principles. What else should i do to bring that 1100 to a 1200 any stategies in a month. I make some dumb mistakes so if i just really focused i'de make less mistakes and that would be like 30 points there probably. I also do very pispour on analogies for some reason is there anything i can do to help this but my critical reading and sentence completions are fine. I'm also trying to study the vocabulary at the back of the "cracking the sat" book, what vocabulary lists do you think are the most helpful.
thanks any help is much obliged

Just continue to do the same thing. Practice makes perfect. Make sure to take practice tests. I like to take one the night before the test, but its all up to the individual. Just get a good night sleep, and eat a good breakfast, but not too big ;) . And don't try to concentrate too much, because it can make you go slower. Just relax, and I['m sure your practice will do you good
