Any benefits for taking the SATs earlier than Junior year?

<p>I was just wondering if it would catch the eyes of colleges at all. Please bear with my stupid question. I'm quite uninformed on SAT related issues.</p>

2

<p>no, not at all</p>

<p>No you can’t qualify for National Merit earlier than Junior year. My school makes me take PSAT Freshman and Sophomore year just for preparation for the real thing.</p>

<p>There’s no point. If you’re scoring really high, chances are you’ll score even higher later in your high school career anyway. It doesn’t hurt to keep practicing though (don’t waste CB tests).</p>

<p>Still… wouldn’t it be beneficial to have more ‘slots’ to retake the SATs? I’ll prob. take it as a sophmore like in the Spring, and retake during summer. I’d rather focus on AP’s and school grades/EC’s in general while in Jr. year rather than SAT/ACT’s </p>

<p>But I’m guessing getting a 2400/36 as a Sophmore isn’t any different than doing the same as a jr.?</p>

<p>None, wait until junior year.</p>

<p>If you do “good”, according to your own expectations, you won’t have to worry about it during junior year.</p>

<p>Other than that…nothing.</p>
