3500 are too much but if u can handle it go for it,,,,i memorised 1000 words from http://www.majortests.com/sat/wordlist.php, btw do u know how to mark these tests, cuz a funny thing happened with me, i ws marking em all wrong in my practice tests and getting 2000 and 1900s but then when the results came 1860 sounded very less since i ws satisfied with the test , and then it broke out to me, that all that time i had been doing wrong markings ops oops:

 

[Irtzaahmed]

sorry to interrupt.....Irtzaahmed meant Baron's SAT............................i am following Collegeboard Book (the official guide), KAPLAN SAT , GRUBER's SAT( this book is really outstanding) ( 2 other books from GRUBER's),and McGraw Hills......my exam is on november or december depending on my preparation.......if you dont have the books you can download it, if you study the books thoroughly and extensively you will get good good score, and "please try to study everyday atleast 2 hours"....thats what my adviser told me......
Hoping to hear more from the virtual world

thanks buying GRUBER's SAT and which vocalbulary should i learn which book

You can. But it will require a lot of work. Good Luck!

@OP,
Unprepared, when I took Barrons diag, I had 1740.
Again, unprepared on Collegeboard's 1st test I had 1910
Slightly prepared (no vocab)(only revised a few rusty topics for Math) on my 2nd CB test I had 1980
Right now, (started vocab), I'm on 2150 highest. (total 6 tests)

Yes. You can and you do improve. My first test was relatively low bec I answered haphazardly and didn't pay much attention to the time. My second and third were better because I drastically improved my pace and didn't waste time reading and rereading the questions + trying for the sake of it.

I'll advise you use the blue, Collegeboard book. It has official papers and is more relevant. The type of questions in the final exam aren't the kind of questions Barrons has. It is significantly tougher and, well, again, the questions aren't like those that show up. It's pointless preparing using that, in my opinion, ofcourse.

Also, how exactly are you marking yourself? What estimation? Each exam has a marking guide; you fill in the corrects and incorrects and it tells you what to do. You get a raw (two digit) number and then you see the corresponding percentile scale it gives you.
