<p>2300 is enough
but you will always wonder if you could have done better
so go do better</p>
<p>I strongly recommend you retake it again. The disparity between math and reading/writing makes the score kind of iffy. A 2300 comprised of a 740, 760, 800 would be fine, but still, it’s a great score!</p>
<p>no way dude! Aim for 2390+, or I doubt your community college will even want you!</p>
<p>It’s quite unnecessary; you [probably] won’t get into any schools that wouldn’t have taken you with a 2300</p>
<p>Serious answer: if you’ve only taken it once, I think I’d retake in your situation. You are interested in top 20 schools, and you are interested in a science-related major. That 750 Math Level II is good, but the curve on that test means that it’s not super-good.</p>
<p>At some of the most selective schools, a 700 math is about at the 25th percentile. I don’t think that’s the best place to be, if you think you can do better.</p>
<p>Normally I would say “no way!” But if you’re applying to a lot of prestigious schools, then you may want to re-take to raise your 700 in math. A lot of posters are saying that a 2300 is a great score (which it is) and that you shouldn’t retake. But not all 2300’s are created equal; if you had 760, 770, 770, then of course you wouldn’t retake it. But you may want to.</p>
<p>Nothing less than 2500 is acceptable. Go kill urself u failure!! :p</p>
<p>i have to completely disagree with you muhammad. you’re gonna need a 2900 with a 15+ on the essay. sorry but i’m not even sure a kindergarten would accept you with those abysmal scores…</p>
<p>Probably u should improve ur math score</p>
<p>This isn’t community College Confidential, predoc. Good luck at Keiser with a score like that.</p>
<p>I’d say it’s worth re-taking because you’ll barely have to study. You just have to practice skills to avoid careless errors like checking every problem and writing out all the steps.</p>
<p>2300 is absolutely close enough!</p>
<p>Yes, the math can be improved. However, I feel like it’s not worth retaking in the sense that you might risk getting, say, a 2280. Which is a good score as well but 2300-> 2280 looks kinda bad to colleges.</p>
<p>Only retake if a) you have nowhere else to spend the time (ACTs, subject tests, etc) or b) you are absolutely sure you can improve by at least 30-50 points.</p>
<p>2300 -> 2280 would NOT look bad to colleges. There is no statistical difference between the two scores, and colleges know that.</p>
<p>Most colleges superscore, so even if the CR and W scores were to drop a bit, it would still be helpful if the M score went up.</p>
<p>I repeat that the math score OP has is at the 25th percentile for a number of the highly selective colleges. Why would anybody think that is “absolutely close enough” for somebody who is interested in a STEM major? Certainly, it’s good enough for many, many excellent colleges. But that wasn’t the question.</p>
<p>Even if the scores have no statistical difference, it’s still a decrease regardless. </p>
<p>And I disagree. Unless, you’re Asian, 2300 should be enough…lol</p>
<p>Please explain why it should be enough to be at the 25th percentile point for math if you want to be a STEM major, whether you are Asian or not. It might be enough, especially if the rest of the qualifications are great.</p>
<p>You’re fine! Honestly a 2250 would be fine for top schools, and you’re way above that</p>
<p>Your scores are perfect the way they are. almost. it never hurts to take the tests again.</p>
<p>You can always change majors…get into the school first. A 2300 is enough for that.</p>
