[INTERNATIONAL] To cancel or not to cancel?

<p>Okay CC I'm have a dilemma. </p>

<p>I wrote the SAT again today, after having taking it twice already (was really stupid, I should not have done it twice in consecutive months, but I registered and didn't want to waste money).</p>

<p>I have heard time and again that three times truly is the limit, even so, I wouldn't want to.</p>

<p>My top score from the two attempts was 2170, 690CR, 800MATH, 680WRITING. I really want a score well into the 2200's, and my practice tests are showing this score. However, I haven't worked on SAT I's in a while and was a bit rusty for today's, and am not completely confident I did well. I found the essay prompt today challenging, and looking through the answers posted by you guys, I found the CR hard, and I am unsure about writing.</p>

<p>I am an International, aspiring to go to Berkeley. I have heard they only look at your top score, but holistic judgment says that seeing you wrote it 4 times would be terrible. Also, since the UC application deadline is the end of this month, would they accept December scores?</p>

<p>Also, I applied ED, so if I DON'T cancel, will the institution count my November scores? But then again, a 30 point increase (example) would not really change their opinion would it ..</p>

<p>Thanks for any light you can shed on this.</p>

<p>I am sure they accept the Dec Scores if the deadline is Nov.31…but I am not sure.</p>

<p>Because I EDed to Cornell (Nov.1 deadline and they accept NOV SUBJECT TEST)</p>

<p>But that was a subject test -not reasoning. So you should email UC admin officers to double check. </p>

<p>And you should RUSH your scores when they come in. Just google “rush scores SAT”</p>

<p>And 2170 should be good enough for Berkeley.</p>

<p>Goodluck</p>
