<p>I'd like to preface this by saying that I understand how subjective my question is and how there exist no surefire answer to it. I am, nevertheless, looking for advice. </p>
<p>Would it be advisable to take my first SAT in December? I have finished most of the blue book and could probably finish direct hits by the date. But it still feels like it's right there -- so soon. Also, what date did you take your first SAT?</p>
<p>I took the SAT only once: January this year.</p>
<p>But I took subject tests three times: June, Oct and now in Dec.</p>
<p>If you feel you are not ready, then don’t take it. But I advise you to take it around May or June so that if you are unhappy with your scores, you can have another shot.</p>
<p>December was my first SAT as well.</p>
<p>However, keep in mind its the time when all the procrastinatin’ Seniors take it, as well as those desperate for a midnight 2400.</p>
<p>^Whoever else is taking the exam is irrelevant. Also, note that you can get the January test back, but not the December test.</p>
