<p>hi, im curently a junior, and plan to do well on my sats to compensate for my mediocure gpa. so when would you reccomend me taking it first? januarry? or later? is it true that if you do bad it doesn't really matter because you can improve and do better on the next one and they'll look only at your best one? my soph psat i got 176. i took jr psat but didn't get it back yet, probably about the same or higher. so should i take the sat in january and prep a little for it, and just take it again later 2 or 3 times or should i wait and take it later in the year? can i have some reccomendations? also what's the best way to prep for it? thanks!</p>
<p>take it early, take it more than once, study hard
the book is the best way to prep
just work, review, repeat
my score went way up after that
i'm a junior, 215 on soph psat, hoping for nmsf this year</p>
