I scored 2130 on the old SAT and am planning on taking it again with the goal of raising my score by 100 points. This would be easier if I just took the old SAT again this fall, but I was wondering if colleges would prefer a new SAT score from me. Does it matter?

I don’t think it should matter- I’m planning on old SAT in November, again in Jan if necessary, and new one in March/April. I think it’s best for Class of 2017 to take the old SAT, since the essay is easier for the old version in my opinion.
@WHSTrojan I actually think it just depends on what colleges prefer, because an easier SAT will simply have higher score ranges and colleges will develop conversion charts by the time we’re applying. I decided I’m going to focus on the ACT this fall, and then take the new SAT in the spring and again in the next fall if necessary.
