A brief question about SAT dates

<p>Do Princeton (or any other colleges, for that matter) take into account your SAT date?</p>

<p>For instance, hypothetically speaking, if I got a 2320 in November of my Junior year, and decided not to take it again, would that be better off than a 2320 by someone else in November of their senior year?</p>

<p>Makes no difference to them. In fact, I think it might be better that it was Nov Junior year because it shows them that you were motivated and responsible, not waiting until the last minute to get your SAT scores in.</p>

<p>bump anyone else</p>

<p>I really don't think it would make any difference. They don't have enough time to think that critically about your test scores when reading your application, and I think they'll care more about WHAT the score is rather than WHEN you got it. Of course, it would help if you completed all neccessary testing before application time and didn't have to put a future test date (shows responsibility and initiative). Also, I'm sure that if you take the test multiple times, they would like to see 1) that you started early enough to give yourself time and 2) that you improved. That help?</p>
