<p>So, I've already taken the SAT three times, and I know that taking it for the fourth time is usually frowned upon. </p>
<p>However, I'd like to apply to top schools (Penn, Cornell, Duke, JHU, Amherst, Vassar, Grinnell), as well as to some mid-tier ones with the hope of getting merit aid.</p>
<p>Should I take the SAT for the fourth time, or move on? The breakdown is 690 CR, 690 M, 770 W (11 essay) right now. I've taken SO MANY practice tests, and always got 2200+ or even 2300+ on a lot of them, and I had a 2400 once. I really don't know what came over me on test day. So if I practiced even more, I'm positive I could get at least 2250+ the next time. </p>
<p>My previous scores were 1820 (I took it in sophomore year, and it was a huge rush, I could barely prepare) and 1980. I'm an international and my native language isn't English, so that makes matter slightly more complicated.</p>
<p>Also, my GPA is 3.95, I'm in the top 1% of my class and have good Subject Test scores, as well as A-Level scores. Oh, and I'd like to study Film, so I don't need a perfect Math score.</p>
