Getting from 1200 to 1350 is about learning fundamentals. Getting from 1350 to 1500+ is a completely different challenge — it's about eliminating careless errors, mastering the hardest question types, and optimizing performance under pressure.
For official test dates, registration, and free practice, visit College Board or practice for free on Khan Academy SAT.
At the 1350 level, you're already getting most questions right. The remaining wrong answers come from:
These are much harder to fix than "I don't understand this concept."
Careless errors are the primary score killer for students in the 1350-1450 range. Tactics to eliminate them:
The top 5-7 questions in each module are specifically designed to challenge students above 1400. Focus areas:
On a truly hard question, eliminate 2 clearly wrong answers first. Then choose between the remaining 2 based on precision — SAT trap answers are almost right but wrong for a specific reason.
Students at 1400+ should aim to finish each module with 3-5 minutes remaining for review. If you're consistently running out of time, speed up your "easy" questions to create buffer for hard ones.
Practice tool: time each question as you solve — know exactly how long you typically spend on each type.
In the 4-6 weeks before your real test, switch from Khan Academy drills to full official tests only. The real test has subtle stylistic differences from even high-quality prep materials — only official College Board tests perfectly simulate what you'll face.
Our advanced SAT program specifically targets the 1350-1500+ jump. Join students who have achieved 1500+ with SAT Samarkand.
