Not much has been said in this thread about the ease with which one can improve one's score by 100-200 points simply by memorizing some words. Obviously any correlation is going to be fairly fuzzy.

you are stuck a lot in the old SAT, they changed it a lot, no more analgogies for one thing. the vocab section is really minimal, it still exists but the verbal section is now the critical reading section. the point is primarily to be able to understand context
