I live close to those places.

From joy to sorrow, yesterday to tomorrow, you've been there. Friends like you are rare, your touch is so gentle,
You're my guardian angel.
Like a blossoming flower spreading your wings in grace, filling my heart with power
by feeling your embrace.

Wherever the wind may blow, we will overcome this war, in times happy or sore, I will never let you go.
With a gentle warm heart and a will of stone, We'll never be apart, You'll never be alone. - John <3

I suggest taking a few avaliable courses. If you are on a budget, there are SAT help books (Kaplan, Princeton, etc.) that will be very helpful. Go to your local bookstore. I'm not sure if there are mock SAT tests online, but I'm sure there are.

i did it already..this stupid sat!!!!!!!!!!!!
i took kaplan..and i hope to raise it this time..but lets say i didnt..
does it mean im stuck and cant go to the college that i want to?

Not necessarily. I mean, if your extracurricular activities are great, then your GPA may not be as object. However, I would strongly suggest continuing to take the class, or trying a different SAT book. For me, I prefer Princeton. A lot of my friends use Barrons. But Kaplan is the generally used one.
