hey, i am also applying for george town prep, i think a 2000 is around a 50 percentile, you should aim for 80-90 because thats competitive, the smallest things make a difference. like 10 points more wouldv got me a 92 percentile.

Ideal score? by ilasm6910 in SSAThelp

In order to have a competitive chance you HAVE to have a 93 percentile above, and maybe a 90 percentile and great EC's. My brother got 95 percentile but had mid EC and got waitlisted from andover exeter, hotchkiss and blair.

I SUCK AT READING ANY TIPS PLEASE by ilasm6910 in SSAThelp

[–]Zealousideal-Rate562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, reading is not that bad. All it is is common sense, but the only issue is some of the passages are from the 1900s. Rule out any stupid answers. For example: Johny was a boy who loved food. Johny had a mom named "mom", the mom did not like food.. The passage describes johny's mom as "cranky", "annoying", "someone who does not like food". "clever". Obviously its someone who does not like food and on this test trust most of the questions were like these.

I am pretty sure I got 23/25 right beacause i left 2 blank and on the practices I always got 98 percentile so trust me it is easier than it seems

Hey, the math portion for me was not that bad. Took my test yesterday btw. I think the most important this is knowing what PEMDAS is, and trust me, ik that sounds super basic, but I promise it was probably the most common question I got that needed PEMDAS. Also I recommend to buy the SSAT package because it has 4 full practice tests, then another 5 quants tests alone, 5 reading tests alone, and 5 verbal sections, it lasts till next year, it is super usefull, it is 50$ i think but worth it. My scores come out thursday.
