1500+ is the threshold for Ivy, Stanford and most T20 US universities. Here's how to get there. 1. **Baseline diagnostic** — Take a full digital SAT in week 1. 2. **Focus on Math first** — It moves faster than Reading & Writing for most students. 3. **Bluebook practice** — Use Khan Academy + official Bluebook tests only. 4. **Weekly mocks** — From week 4 onward, one timed full mock per weekend. 5. **Adaptive pacing** — Train Module 1 ≤ 25 min so you get the harder Module 2. Our SAT specialists run dedicated 12-week 1500+ cohorts.
