dilema: one score much lower than other 2

Test Preparation
1

<p>Hey,</p>

<p>I received my scores today and this is what they were.</p>

<p>Critical Reading - 600
Math - 690
Writing - 740</p>

<p>2030</p>

<p>My Critical Reading score is clearly a lot lower than my other two. Is this going to look really bad when applying to college? What if I take the test again and go up a little in the Critical Reading, but my other two sections go down (I doubt that I will score as high again in the other two)? Won't schools still see the score, even if they take the highest? Some advice would be greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>I can't help you, but I'm in the same situation myself. My math score is 120 points below my CR and writing. </p>

<p>You might consider studying really well for the Literature SAT II and taking AP English next year, so colleges will know you can handle higher level material.</p>

<p>Bumping, because I have a personal interest in this topic and hope that someone can answer the OP's question.</p>
