After 3 months of hard preparation and studying...
I don't think its possible for me to get into USAFA anymore even if I still go into the Summer Seminar... When I took the test, I thought it was easy. I don't understand, whenever I practice SAT questions, I usually get them right. When I took the test, I completely failed and got killed.

SAT Test

SAT Test
480 Reading
570 Math
520 Writing
My score went down 10 points. What the f...... My reading went up 10 points thats it. And my math went down 20 points. Math is my strongest subject and I got owned on it. I am soo mad at myself right now
What can I do to improve? I study SAT in general (Math Writing, Crit.) about 1-2 hours a day. The only reason that I can think of why I scored low is
-Me not studying right
-Should not have guessed on the SAT
On the last SAT, any question I did not know I did not answer. I left about 20-30 questions blank (Might be less). On the recent SAT test, I answered all questions I did not know by guessing on about 20-30 questions. Maybe the odds were not in my favor and every question I guessed on, I got wrong which brought my score down about 50 - 100 points per section? I don't know haha. The only reason why I guessed on every question was because my friend answered every question on the SAT and guessed on the ones he didn't know and came out with a 600 + on each section. Were about the same in smarts too.
Any thoughts?
