Question about SAT score

my SAT score dropped from a 1470 to a 1360. Is that a really really bad thing or do colleges just take the highest score? I still have to take the new SAT.

<p>They take the highest score. They will just think you had a bad day. The new one will be more important anyway.</p>

<p>Have you all ready taken 2 and the new one will be the third? At our school they tell the kids to take it no more than three times because they level out. So prep well for the new one. It will be okay.</p>
