    How to Get 1500 or 1600 on the SAT
    The prescription for a 1500-1600 includes:
    learning the basic content required for the math and grammar sections
    strengthening basic reading skills
    learning basic vocabulary
    gaining expertise on the SAT itself - you should have perfect knowledge of what's on the test
    and the best general strategies.
    The essay doesn't matter much at this score students getting less than 500 on the writing rarely do
    so due to a weak essay.
    Focus primarily on the easies and mediums; you can generally omit all the hards!
    Percentiles: 1500 = 51%; 1600 = 63%
    All Raw Points and Max Wrong given are estimates! Use them only as rough guidelines.
