The Test I Took

I took the SAT earlier this year. I didn't have any accommodations.

My Test Scores

I got a 560 on the reading section, a 490 on math, and a 575 on Writing.

My overall score was a 1625 which I think was pretty good. What do you think?

Okay it says I have to have 200 characters so I'm just going to write for a while to see if I can make the characters come up a bit.

What I'd Do Differently

I wish I had used a test prep book or something. I think I would have gotten a higher score if I had used one. I also wish I had remembered more math. The math section was really hard!

Kelly Roell, Test Prep Guide, says:

Thanks for the post, Alexa! Your scores aren't bad at all! The national averages for the SAT are these: * Critical Reading: 502 * Math: 515 * Writing: 494 You were above average on 2 out of 3 sections. Your scores are a little bit low for the Ivy Leagues (unless your GPA is incredible and your extracurriculars will knock someone's socks off) but for most colleges, you're doing great.
