<p>This question isnt as conceited as you may think.</p>
<p>Everyone in my magnet high school (okay like all my group of friends ~25 kids) got exactly +/- 10 points of this score. Should I retake? I registered originally before my may scores came out due to the june deadline, so should i just take it and cancel if i feel i sucked on it? Please help. Thanks all~</p>
<p>If you can get a refund then you don't need to retake it if you don't want to but if you don't have anything else to do you should try for a 2400.</p>
<p>if he already payed for the test and can't get his money back, then he should just take the test. anyway, it would be sweet to actually get a 2400, no matter how meaningless it may be.</p>
<p>Your SAT range (they give you a range for each section) already indicates you're capable of a 2400. Colleges know on a given day your score could be between a 2310 - 2400. The 50 points will not make a difference. It's highly unlikely that you will do better because you really have no where to improve. Your lowest score is a 780. Your 790 in math is ONE question. It's highly unlikely you will get absolutely NONE wrong, and it's only a 10 point difference. It's too bold of you to assume that you will do that well again, because the test difficulty is too unpredictable. I would not take it again for at most 50 points.</p>

<p>Are you SURE they have...cause kids fib, and if ALL your friends did so well, I would not be suprised if a couple of them, said, Oh Yeah, me to, we are a statistical annomoly</p>

<li><p>What school do you attend? (I ask because I'm wondering if you went to my high school.)</p></li>
<li><p>Do not retake. There is a good chance you will score lower (which would dull the shine of your excellent first score), and even if you score a 2400, it would make absolutely no difference to colleges.</p></li>

<p>Not everysmart person does well on SATs as we have seen on these posts, so to have most students score above a 2350 in one school,no matter how smart they are, well, i say some kids are lying about their score because I do not believe that 25 of 25 got a 2350 in one school</p>
<p>sorry, but I would have to see the actually scores because with that pressure, somebody is going to lie...</p>
<p>I go to the Academy for the Advancement of Science and Technology (Hackensack NJ- Bergen Academies). Recently excluded by Newsweek rankings along with like 10 other schools due to way above avg</p>
<p>that is great, but i bet someone you know is fibbng about their scores....cause with that much pressure, people cheat no matter what school or how "smart"</p>
