A Predicament after recieving March SAT Scores - Please Help

Test Preparation SAT Preparation
1

<p>I am a Junior, and I just recieved my March SAT scores: Reading and Math: 710 on both. Writing: 660. Essay: 8. This is the second time I took the test. First time I did not prepare at all and did terribly. This time I prepared a little, but definately less than I could have. I know I can do better than this. My goal is a 750 or higher on math, same with reading. Anything over a 700 on writing would be nice, but i'm not too worried about that score.</p>

<p>I still need to take the Chemistry, Physics, and Math II subject tests.</p>

<p>The remaining test dates, I think, are in May, June, October, and November. The only problem with the last two (Oct. and Nov.) is that I may not be able to see my scores before I send them to colleges. I am applying Early Application to all my serious choices.</p>

<p>I was thinking of taking the May SAT, with the late fee, and taking the Chemistry one only in June because I won't have to study much since I'll be taking the AP Chemistry exam. June 5, the day of the test, is the day after I return from a weeklong school trip (required). Therefore, I won't be able to get good studying in for the Math II or Physics tests. However, since Chemistry should still be fresh in my mind I would like to take that then anyway.</p>

<p>Do you think from now to May 1st I will have enough time to bring up my SAT I scores to where I want them? Also, when should I take the subject tests? What two paths should I take if I get the scores or don't get the scores I want?</p>

<p>Please help. Sorry about the length of this post, but I've run into a bit of a problem here. Thanks.</p>

<p>I’m in a very similar situation (I got a 2080 too :)), and here’s what I have decided to do:</p>

<p>Take my Math II and Chemistry subject tests in May. My reasoning behind this is that I will be studying for the AP Chem exam in the next month, so I will be able to use all of that information and take the Chem SAT II while everything is fresh in my head. This way, I won’t need to review the material again in June. </p>

<p>I will retake my SAT in June and spend the weeks after the APs are over totally dedicated to studying for the SAT. The SAT will be my priority after the APs are over.</p>

<p>I don’t know if i’ll be prepared to take the Chem or Math tests by May. And I can’t take the SAT I in june, because its the day i get back from a trip.</p>
