Make an account with Collegeboard if you don't have one already, and take a practice test through the Bluebook App. After taking the test, LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES! Too many students do not bother to look back and correct their weaknesses. Then use Khan Academy (free) to practice those weak areas. Get into a regular habit of practicing a little each day or even week- make a study goal and stick to it. I went from a 1190 to a 1320 (SAT scores) in 2 months because I practiced (and will continue to).

Hope this helps! It is always possible to improve. And, if standardized tests do not work for you, you can always go test-optional!

I say use Khan Academy, they have a lot of good resources + practice tests! They also take your current score and analyze it for you to show you what you need to work on. Good luck! :)
