Collegeboard SAT Practice Tests?
Asked by emansalah5Hi there! Does anyone have any particular experience with the scores they got on the Collegeboard SAT Practice tests as opposed to the real SAT they took? For example, lets say you took a SAT practice test from Collegeboard and got the following results: CR: 600 Math: 550 Writing: 610 When you took the real SAT and recieved your scores within two weeks, were your scores identical to your practice test scores, or were they completely and outrageously different? I would really like to know, since I often hear that the Collegeboard SAT Practice Tests are a bit easier than the real thing. I also recently took an actual, previously administered SAT from the Collegeboard, and the Math was surprisingly easy for me. What about Princeton Review? Are their tests identical to the SAT in terms of easiness/difficulty, scores, etc? Please share your experiences. Thank you so much.

i had previously taken two practice tests, with the scores of 1950 and 1930. When I took the real exam though, i only got a 1900. I think you should expect to do lower on the real one because of the pressure of time and the nervousness you might feel. But it shouldn't be too far off. Anyways, it's best to take it as many times as you can so that you can then send your best score to the colleges you want to go to.
