Just got nov. Ssat score! Help!!!!

Prep School Admissions

<p>So I recieved my november 16 SSAT score today in the mail!</p>

<p>My scores were as follows:</p>

<p>Verbal: 94%</p>

<p>Reading: 97%</p>

<p>Math: 82%</p>

<p>Total: 94%</p>

<p>I'm wondering if I should take the SSAT again in December 12th (I already signed up just in case), or should I leave my score as is? I'm kind of disappointed that my math percentile was so low... and I'm kind of skeptical that my reading and verbal will come out lower if I take it again though...</p>

<p>so should I take it again just to raise my math score?</p>

<p>Help!</p>

<p>THANKS (:</p>

<p>good job, what grade and school are u applying too? also did u get it by email, or snail mail. nd if my snail mail was it fed exed?</p>

<p>I’m in 8th grade and I got it by snail mail (not fed exed)</p>

<p>I don’t really know what to say here. If you take again it’s adding more stress to you but if you really think you could increase the score then do take it again. But the score is a good score that you have.
I wish my SSAT score would hurry up and come too. :(</p>

<p>u did a good job, so don’t u stress for it.
But what schools are you applying to?</p>

<p>I guess it depends on the schools that you’re applying to.
I don’t know what your financial situation is, but since you’ve already signed up, you should probably retake it. That’s what I’d do, anyway. If you’re better off and can afford wasting the $180 or so, cancel it.
Your scores are good, but I’d say retake because you wouldn’t waste money/you’d be more satisfied.</p>
