How to Improve Your SAT Score in 3 Months


A Focused Plan to Help You Reach Your Goal Before Test Day

📌 Why a 3-Month SAT Prep Plan Works

Three months is long enough to see significant improvement, but short enough to keep your motivation high.
With consistent effort, many students increase their score by 100–200 points or more in this time frame.

✅ Month 1: Build Your Foundation

  • Take a full-length practice test to establish a baseline

  • Identify weak areas (Math, Reading, Writing)

  • Review core concepts you’ve forgotten or never mastered

  • Begin studying 3–4 days per week

✅ Month 2: Strengthen and Strategize

  • Focus on targeted practice for weaker sections

  • Learn test-taking strategies (time management, process of elimination)

  • Use official SAT practice questions from College Board

  • Increase study sessions to 4–5 days per week

✅ Month 3: Simulate the Real Thing

  • Take weekly full-length practice tests under timed conditions

  • Analyze mistakes and adjust your strategy

  • Review pacing so you finish each section comfortably

  • Prioritize rest and stress management in the final week

🎯 Extra Score-Boosting Tips

  • Use a mix of digital and paper practice if you’ll take the new digital SAT
