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
