My PSAT score and my report card were given out this week. what do you think of the grades? and advice plz!!!?
-
I got 1530 on the PSAT. Breakdown: Critical reading 460 Mathematics 500 Writing skills 570 I am a sophomore and I was extremely disappointed with my score. I didn't study nor do i have any experience taking this test. Last year my overall overage was 86. This year according to the second semester which is also cumulative with the first one I received an overall average of 91.5 Im trying a lot harder this year and I will sustain my A average throughout the year. The tension with choosing a college is rising and my parents pressure me even more. Basically how much can my PSAT scores increase when i take it the second time? I will study my whole summer with my brothers PSAT Gruber's book which helped him increase it, Another reason why i was dissapointed is that people who have much lower averages than me received PSAT scores of 1900. one of them had a high 70 average. I only lived in the U.S. for 6 years. I still think I do fairly well in school but as you can see i did very bad on the critical reading part. my writing skills as you can see were fairly well. What should i do to increase on my reading section. Should i read more? Wow this came out to be a lot of questions since I have a lot to say! Just tell me what I should do, what are my chances of increasing the score or getting into a good college!!!! Thanks a lot. and i will give 10 points to the best answer!!!

Answer:
I personally dint think you should stress over your PSAT scores. You did pretty well in my opinion and its only a pre SAT. i honestly wouldn't recommend taking it again, think its a waste of time and money. Focus on your normal studies and the SAT because that's what colleges look at. Hopfully this helps you out a bit. think its pretty much common sense.

Retake. We all mess up bad sometimes. I got 2290(229) on my first PSAT in sophomore year :(. Hella failed it mainly because I accidently skipped 2 problems.
