<p>deferred:should i retake the sats again for the 4th time
I recently got it deferred. I know i probably got deferred b/c of my sat scores. I got 1320 sats 690 math, 630 verbal. I've already taken it 3 times and have got 1320,1310, and 1320 so should i even bother taking it again. Would it look bad if i took it again cuz they might interpret me as not studying for the sats and just winging it everytime. I've already done the 10 real sats. I've already checked why i got those question incorrect and redid the problems. I've very good in math, i'm in calc 2 multivariable, 3d calculus already so I know I can do better. On the practice tests I get anything from 1280-1580. For the verbal part for all of the tests I’ve memorized the 1000 word lists. I’ve done the sentence and analogy perfectly and I only have trouble with the critical reading. Is it worth it to take it again?</p>

<p>no forget about it...youve taken it three times and all of them are basically the same...thats your score...</p>

<p>even if you take it again and manage to get 1500+..the adcom will not be just be able to ignore the fact that youve taken the sat 4 times and have gotten around 1320 on 3 of them...</p>

<p>4 times is too much...good luck...strengthen the other parts of your app...</p>

<p>Have you done the ACT? My S had 1340 scores SAT and then did much better on the ACT-it opened many doors for him. He barely studied for it but had studied for the SAT. I would not take the SAT 4 times.</p>
