[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rising senior at one of the big 3s.  Took SAT for the first time in 08/18 and scored 1020.  Spent 8k on test prep and took in 03/19 and scored 1460.  Spent another 4K on test prep and took the SAT on 06/2019 and scored 1570 and done with SAT.[/quote]

This can’t be real.[/quote]

How so?  The SAT can be rigged with lot of SAT prep[/quote]

Nope. The SAT can’t be “rigged”.  Your score can be improved upon.  You can get a decent score bump with SAT prep. But in less than a year, 550 points isn’t real. As in, the College Board flags score increases of 500 points or more as invalid/ fraudulent unreal.  1020 is the 55%.   I don’t believe a Big 3 kid scored a 1020.  If for no other reason than because they should have a decent math background and some ability to do grammar.  If a kid did score a 1020 from a Big 3, one of these schools is about to drop in rankings. Bigly.  1570 is 99.9%.  You can prep, but there is also an aptitude element.  55% to 99.9% is not real.   PP oversold.  Should have stuck with 1020 to 1400 or 1400 to 1570. [/quote]
