<p>Hi all,</p>

<p>I took the SAT on the Dec.1 test date, and I managed to get a 2340 (800CR 740M 800WR). I would like to apply to Caltech and right now I'm wondering if I'm going to have to take the test again because of the 740 math score. </p>

<p>Should I take it again, or is it good enough?</p>

<p>If it isn't good enough, can a high score on Math level 2 override its potentially harmful impact?</p>

<p>It’s good enough. Have you taken the Math 2 yet? If not, score well :-)</p>

<p>If it wasn’t the math section or it wasn’t Caltech, I’d say you’re fine… However, since it is the math section and it is Caltech, I say retake it.</p>
