Anyone ever retake the SAT while IN college?

<p>I am just wondering....I am just curious to see if anyone ever took the SAT while in college to see if they would do better. Not saying I will, but I am just curious. I remmber seeing a show years ago in which some coworkers took the SAT again just to see which one would score higher. Of course, this was way after college and well into their careers but I am just wonderin' for kicks.</p>

<p>I think anyone who does that needs to get a life.</p>

<p>+<em>+holla+</em>+</p>

<p>lol. perhaps...well, now tha tu have said that, anyone that has taken it again is not gonna answer....lol</p>

<p>there was that guy who took it to get a 0 raw scaled score. quite a feat if you ask me.</p>

<p>go for it. i might try to in order to up my scholarship $</p>

<p>I didnt know that one could do it again to qualify for additional $$</p>

<p>There are people who take it because they want to transfer. People who want to take it for scholarship money (even if you're school doesn't offer it, outside organizations do). People who are in their careers who are running into a wall because their employers are starting to look at SAT scores for promotions and they either didn't take them or got a terrible score (particularly pre-rescaling). And people who take it just to see if they'd do better. </p>

<p>Are you really surprised, though?</p>

Isn't that an oxymoron? haha. I hope you mean a raw score because it is impossible to get a 0 on the scaled score.</p>

<p>test prep people usually take it in college. Like for classes and stuff like that. I know someone commented that someone had taken it everytime it was offerred during his college career</p>

<p>people from Prinecton Review and the like take these tests to get info on how to make new practice tests</p>

<p>beware if you see any older looking people in your classroom</p>

<p>they do skew the curve a little, but not by any significant amount</p>

<p>Don't transfer apps ask for an SAT taken in high school? I may have read wrong....</p>

<p>The lowest possible is a 200.</p>

<p>And the guy who tried actually accidentally got an english question right (he didnt know what the right answer was so he had to guess)</p>

<p>The students at Simon's Rock do it</p>

<p>i dont get that low score thing, what' so impressive, you dont have to know what's right, only what's wrong...and if there are 4 that are wrong out of the five, you've got to be realyl really dumb to not figure one of those out...</p>

<p>Yeah I'd say you can definitely always tell what a wrong answer would be. I could potentially--potentially--see someone not knowing at ALL how to tackle a math problem and having to guess (possibly correctly) but there has GOT to be at least one obvious wrong answer on all of the ones on the Verbal test.</p>

<p>Well, actuallly i think getting EVERY single question wrong on the SAT is quite a feat. You almost always have to know all the correct answers and intentionally miss them. Going by what feels wrong will probably end up in two or three correct answers overall.</p>

<p>The guy who performed that stunt accidentally got a geometry question correct. That was his only "error". His aim was to mark the "most incorrect" answer to every problem.</p>

<p>sat scores might be considered for transfer apps</p>

<p>for some companies, you have to have 1300+ still, i read an article on this, where they still looked for sat score, even though the person interviewing for a job has almost finished college. </p>

<p>people who want to teach SATs but dont have high scores can retake it and teach on subject that they initially didnt do so well on but have since improved</p>

<p>What outside organizations consider SAT or ACT scores for scholarships?</p>
