<p>I just wanted to get an estimate of the "average" number of times people have taken their SAT's. </p>
<p>Also, is it true that after you retake the test twice, CollegeBoard will start to average out your scores? Thanks</p>
<p>3 and not true at all.</p>
<p>4.</p>
<p>The only reason I took it a 4th time was because my #1 college accepted January SAT scores. Taking the SAT was literally the only thing left that I could do at that point to increase my chances.</p>
<p>Once- but I practiced for months.</p>
<p>3 times in all. First no studying for a 1980. Second with 3 weeks of study for a 2240 (but only 680 CR), then third with more CR study for a 2210 (but 760 CR), for a superscore of 2330.</p>
<p>I’ve taken the SAT twice- in May and November.</p>
<p>And no, they do not average out your scores. It just looks terrible to take it more than 3 times. Take it in the fall and spring of junior year and then if you still absolutely have to, take it in October/November of your senior year.</p>
<p>Twice total. Once in October my sophomore year and then in December the same year.</p>
<p>3 times and it went up about 100 points each time</p>
<p>I retook once (so 2 tests total). Only went from 2050 to 2070.</p>
<p>Never heard about CB averaging scores. I highly doubt it’s true.</p>
<p>Did you find that your scores increased each time or did they stay pretty constant?</p>
<p>3 now and about to take the fourth tests.</p>
<p>None, most people I know do 2-3</p>
<p>I took it once, since my score came out pretty good, but I planned to take it twice.</p>
<p>3 total. I took the ACT 3 times too. I personally think anything more than that is a little excessive. :P</p>
