Retake a 2380?

Test Preparation SAT Preparation

<p>You should start looking at community colleges. Some offer good honors programs with transfers into reputable 4 yr institutions like Bowling Green State and University of Maryland Eastern Shore.</p>

<p>You can take it again, but, remember, colleges see all of your scores.</p>

<p>On a serious note, I know a few kids in my class who were <strong><em>ed as all mother</em></strong> that they got 2380s and 2390s, missing a mere one question or something. And despite the incredible urge to retake and obtain perfection, they obstained. Because it's really not worth it. You might go down. Heaven forbid. ;).</p>

<p>if i ever got a 2380 my parents would literally show their disgust and disapproval. I just have to beat the nerds in my school or I'm not good enough. The OP may not be joking around</p>

43

<p>if you are rich white upper class-ish then it would kinda just show that you spent a lot of money on sat tutors, classes, and books i think</p>

<p>-_____-
is this a joke?
because...I think that would actually look bad to colleges (according to counselor, because they'll think ur wasting time re-taking even tho its COMPLETELY UNECESSARY...)</p>

45

<p>how did you get 800 on writing and a 9 on the essay? I thought the essay counts towards 30% of the writing section</p>

46

<p>You can get an 800 if and only if you miss NOTHING or maybe one question on the entire multiple choice for writing. (with a 9 essay)</p>

47

<p>Stop whining. You annoy me. No one cares if you get a 2400 or a 2380. Stop wasting everyone's time.</p>

48

<p>^ he's kinda right you know. forget about the SAT; 2380 is high enough. why waste your parent's money and your time and effort for another 20 pts. what if you get lower in your next try? How would that look on your college apps?</p>

<p>Just pretentious...</p>

<p>Don't encourage him, you'll just feed his ego. If he's even telling the truth.</p>

57

<p>tripnip, if you don't retake, you can kiss your chances goodbye.</p>

<p>No kidding .. that score is "bad" geezz . mine is way worse lol</p>

59

<p>i read a book recently that quoted an emory admissions officer who said when they saw a student take a 1580/1600 several times, it was not impressive and made them wonder where their priorities were and how else the student might be spending his/her time. Feelings are probably the same at other schools.</p>
