I had 30 days left and focused on targeted review instead of endless full tests. Keeping a mistake log and redoing missed questions helped me raise my SAT score by 110 points.

I had basically 30 days left and kept searching how to improve SAT score in 30 days because I was lowkey panicking. What helped me most was stopping random practice and getting super specific.

I did one timed math module and one reading/writing module almost every day, then spent more time reviewing than testing. I kept a mistake list with the question type, why I missed it, and the shortcut or rule I should have used.

The biggest score jump came from fixing repeated mistakes, not grinding endless full tests. For math, I redid every missed question two days later. For reading, I practiced slowing down on evidence questions because I was rushing and picking trap answers.

In the last week, I did 2 full Bluebook tests and copied the exact timing I wanted on test day. Went up 110 points in a month, so honestly 30 days can be enough if you review hard.
