Haha! You crack me up, you really do! ^ ^ Thank you, John. I'll take that advice, because that stressed person you're describing could really be me. I'm such a SLOW worker! I guess I need to work on that.

lol
You guys give a lot of advice, more than I do XD
I got into NYU >_> instead of Yale
But practice the vocablary before the test. During the test, be very alert, work swiftly and cautiously at the same time. You get this feeling and you know you can do it. For the stories that take up 2 full pages, skim through (not literally). Read at a faster pace that will still catch most of the facts and details. Or you could look at the questions first, then skim the long passage. That should save you a lot of time.

The vocabulary isn't so much of an issue as critical reading. You'll
probably be able to get all of the words from context, so the
vocabulary isn't much of an issue. Just be sure not to get tricked by the vocabulary, because often, the use of the word in context will be completely different from the common definition of the word.

Though, maybe I'm not the best person to take this advice from. Critical Reading was my best section, followed by Writing, and rounded out with a pretty low (relatively) Math score. 1790 isn't bad, but I could have brought it up by a lot if I'd done better in math.

Oh, and guess if you can eliminate one or more answers. Which I'm sure has been drummed into you at this point.

Don't stress about the SATs, though. The thing is, a good SAT won't get you into a good college. It's just that a bad SAT will keep you out of one. Find out what the average SAT score for your planned colleges are, and aim to overshoot this. It's a lot more concrete than trying to "do well on the SAT."

A lot of colleges don't even give too much priority to your SATs; your transcript is a much better gauge of your academic performance.
