<p>I took the SAT in January and got:</p>
<p>790 Math
800 Writing
670 Critical Reading</p>
<p>M + R: 1460
Total: 2260</p>
<p>So, I'm pretty set on retaking it, and I was thinking October. </p>
<p>My question is, Should I take it again?</p>
<p>If so, does October sound good for a lot of these programs?</p>

<p>i had.</p>
<p>2250T
1460 m+cr</p>

700 math (>_>)
760 CR</p>
<p>2c 800, chem 800, bio 770.</p>
<p>got interviews at albany med and HPME. ur fine on the SAT part, work on the rest</p>
<p>so you applied for 08?</p>
<p>…but your SAT parts were all above 700. doesn’t it look bad that my CR is below 700?</p>

<p>yes i applied 08. i think u can be ok with a 670 CR. my worst thing was 700 SATI math . the northwetsern avg is like 780 or something.</p>
<p>ok, thanks for your advice.</p>
<p>Anybody else have an opinion?</p>
<p>come on, anybody.
what would you do?</p>
<p>i know you guys are just dying to say something</p>
<p>ur sats look fine… stop worrying =D</p>
<p>pretty much as long as you score above around 2200 everybody looks the same from the test score viewpoint</p>
<p>and you are completely sure?
A LOT of people have been telling me the 670 is too low, despite the combined</p>
<p>670 across the board (math, writing, reading) might be low, but 670, when your combined is 1460/2260 is competitive.</p>
<p>At this point, your SAT score is fine, work on other things to boost your app. High SAT score and no other stuff = reject.</p>
<p>so just one last time:
even if I know I can get around a 720, I shouldn’t take it again?</p>
<p>also, which programs superscore?</p>
<p>i got a 630 cr and have an interview to hpme</p>

<p>i dont think its worth it…
stressing out over 30 points is to much.
all the time you spend worrying could be spent doing a more fun (and rewarding) EC or just time spent doing something enjoyable (and stress-free).</p>
<p>thats just my opinion.
but then again…i only a 2020 on my SAT, so who am i kidding lol</p>

<p>like universities (UC’s, and state schools) and such…</p>
<p>OR you could be super cool and take the ACT where the subscores don’t matter as much because schools can’t determine as much as they can from the SAT :).</p>
