[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's harder to move up from an already-high score. DC's first cold practice test was in the mid 1400's (I don't recall the actual score - 1440 or 1450 maybe?). Wound up with 1560 after studying. If you're starting from a lower base, say in the 1200's, I think a 200-point increase is possible.[/quote] How much studying? Studying alone or with help? Thanks. [/quote] He did about 6 - 8 sessions with a tutor (a medical student at Harvard who had gotten a perfect score on math), mostly focusing on the hardest math questions that are at the end of the second math module in the DSAT. His R&W score went up after taking a bunch of practice tests, he didn't really focus on that other than reviewing grammar. I think he could have gotten there by himself on the math with a lot of practice and Khan Academy, but the tutor was a lot more efficient. Ultimately got 790 on math.[/quote]
