Early 2200ers (<2250) What are you going to do?

<p>Are you going to retake your SATs? I'm constantly pondering if I should retake or not. Everything is okay except for that damn writing score grrrr.
CR 770
Math 760
Writing 680</p>

<p>Yeah I'm going back and forth...retaking sounds like a good idea for a few hours, then I rethink that... I have a 2240, 2250 with my CR from the old SAT. I have a 750 on each section though, so if I retake I couldn't even just focus on bringing up one section.</p>

<p>Well I'm a 2260, but the writing which apparently doesnt count much is what brought me up. 690 cr 780math 790 writing. I'm not deciding either way for a while, I have all of junior year still.</p>

<p>i got a 2180... 800 M 710 R 670 W hell no i'm not gonna retake it again... fist of all, they don't even care that much about writing... so my 1510 is fine in my books</p>

<p>Does writing matter at all? I have M-800, R-750, and W-640, which gives me a 1550/2190. Is that worth a retake?</p>

<p>supermurgatroyd... ur in my boat! and like i said, i don't plan to... not worth the maybe 50/60 pts i could get on writing</p>

<p>i'm the same too.</p>

<p>Math: 800
Reading: 740
Writing: 660 (680 in March)</p>

<p>I'm stumped too. I prob. won't be able to get 1540 M+R next time, so I think there's a good chance I won't retake. But getting less than 700 still seems pretty shaky @ top schools, even if they don't really care about.</p>

<p>Not counting sophomore year which I didn't really take seriously, I've only taken the SAT in march and got a 2200 (770v/720m/710w), and I'll probably take it in October. My verbal score will probably go down, but hopefully with some practice tests my writing and math can go up (I know I can and should to better in math, but writing is going to take some real effort in the way of learning grammar rules).</p>

<p>2240 (740,740,760)</p>

<p>I think I could definitely get a perfect on Math if I concentrated which would bring me up to a 2300 which is a nice sounding number but I haven't decided yet wether im going to retake or not. I could probably improve writing too since i got perfect mc but only 8 on the essay.</p>

<p>well i am a soph, i got 2220 (800 M 690 CR 730 W). i was really happy. i know i'll get better at the english stuff by senior year, and my score may go up, but i actually thought i did a lot better than expected on CR, which i suck at. i dont want to risk losing my math 800, which i am thrilled about because math is the coolest thing in the world and i need an 800 for dignity reasons. lol
i wasnt going to retake as long as i got >2100, and 800 M, and since i got those i am pretty happy
but every time i come to this site i feel as if my 2220 is like 1800, what with all u evil 2300+ retakers, grrrrr. well im trying to ignore u!!!!!
but seriusly, im getting doubts, and i dont know if i should. 2220 is good for colleges like, caltech/MIT right???????</p>

<p>So in my case I have a old SAT math 800. Can I replace my new math score(760) with this 800? It will bring me up to a 2250(1570). If I can't I think I'll risk retaking it. What do you think?</p>

<p>Yes, most colleges will mix and match, so you'll have an 800 Math. The only exceptions would be schools that only accept new SAT scores.</p>

<p>haha well I DID retake the test and only now I'm in this club with a 2210. So thanks for making me feel like crap! I was happy before.</p>

<p>2170... plan to retake, unless my ACT comes back very good.</p>

<p>2210 (CR-700, M-710, W-800). I don't plan to retake.
My score report said that the average change in my CR score on a retake was -5. I'm really happy with it anyway.</p>

<p>2240 ( 740 CR 790 M 710 W )</p>

<p>i dont know whether or not to retake.. i think i might because im capable of high 700s in Writing :/</p>

<p>i'm retaking...totally disappointed because I KNOW I could have done better, a lot better.</p>

<p>Damn careless mistakes</p>

<p>Everyone is in the same boat.
1600/2290 - It's very aggravating. Wasn't it like...a week ago...that everyone was saying writing was a pushover?</p>

<p>for all the people saying "writing won't count" i think that only applies to schools that didnt require SAT II Writing. If you're thinking about any schools that required the SAT II Writing, I would worry about your SAT Writing now.</p>
