<p>i'm happy with it, but will it suffice for the ivies?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Was that your first time?</p>
<p>A 2220 sounds fine, but what did you get on math and reading combined? Aim for 750 on each subsection</p>
<p>Don't bother yourself retaking! You have an excellent score that puts you well in the range of top tier schools. Just relax a little, do well in school, and you'll be fine! =) Colleges don't want superhumans!</p>
<p>if i had a 2220 with my first sitting i would shoot out for 2300+...
on the other hand if my CR and MR would be 750+ i would bother</p>
<p>If you think you can improve, go for it and try to get the score that puts you in the best light.</p>
<p>I retook at 2220, because I thought I had undershot my potential for math by 100 points. As it turned out I only went up 10 in math, but 80 in writing. :shrug:</p>
<p>Are you a junior or a senior? If a junior, definitely give it another shot, either late this year or early senior year. If a senior, it's really up to you and whether or not you think you can improve.</p>
<p>I am not retaking a 2180, because I need to complete other applications and worry about school more than the SAT. Besides, I got what I expected in math and writing, although I was a quite below where I should have been in critical reading.</p>
<p>unless you're ELC and 4.71 anyways, you should retake it</p>
<p>i disagree. don't retake it.</p>
<p>Nice job on the 2220!</p>
<p>Though, I would retake if M+V composite is less than 1500.</p>
<p>I got a 2210, and the breakdown showed that most people that got my score actually did worse the second time around....</p>
<p>yeah, MOST people did worse...if you study more, you won't do worse</p>
<p>Nobody can really say whether that score is good enough for the ivies. If you have great ECs and are ranked high, you're probably good, but a higher score never hurt anybody</p>
<p>retake if you actually think you can go up. but otherwise your scores are fine!</p>
<p>Yeah, if its only your first time, or if you're only a junior, and plan on studying some more, retake. But if none of the above, be happy with that score! Its a very competitive SAT score considering you have good academics and ECs.</p>
