<p>what are some tips to raise my sat chem scores. i took a sparknotes test and barrons test and got around 550-590. thats bad. test is this saturday. help me</p>

<p>Uh if you're taking chemistry in HS and not chem. honors then... this test could be a problem for you. I don't know how to help you. Be more specific.</p>

<p>Read through Princeton Review. All of it.</p>

<p>i just finished chem honors. i am at the acids section of princeton review. i get most of the stuff before the acids section, except i need to memorize some molecule shape hybridization stuff and strong/weak acid and bases and probally some equation thing.</p>

<p>Look at the types of problems you made mistakes on; see if there are any specific topics you don't understand... then read about them in a couple of different prep books or text books -- I find explanations in different wordings can help.</p>

<p>PR is pretty solid, so if you know that book you should be at least okay. also, IMO, sparknotes and especially barron's tests are much harder than the real thing. expect your score to go up about 100 pts from the average on the practice tests.</p>

<p>in general, just study study study...you still have 4 days till the test :).</p>
