I have 2 “dream schools”
I would be elated to go to either one of them for college.
i got (in my mind) a GREAT ACT score that I’m very happy with, but my first dream school prefers the SAT.
i have taken the SATs once already. i got an 1190. this puts me in the 42th percentile at the first of my two “dream” schools, and in the 59th percentile of the second. Definitely not good enough.
a 1290 would put me above the 75th percentile for both schools which is satisfactory.
so that is my goal.
i take the SATs for the second time in early October.
so my goal is, from now until school starts, to devote 5 hours a week studying. This for me, is huge. I am not good at studying, and i usually do “just enough” to get a B or higher in all my classes…except for math. But if i stick to this study plan, i feel there is no way i WON’T be able to raise my score 100 points, so that’s why I’ve created it to be so vigorous.
with all of the things i’m doing this summer including camp, several trips, and a class on FLVS, it will be a challenge to find the time, but even more so the drive within myself to do 5 hours of sat prep each week!
lets hope i can suck it up, and get my act together!
