Retake? :( :( :( :( help!!!

<p>Kay.. So far i got
800 Math IIC
790 Korean
750 Chem</p>

<p>And we're not too happy about the chem mark.<br>
The deal is, I didnt take the SAT I's yet.
I find the ACT MUCH easier.
Also, There are 2 schools I want to get into. The #1 needs my test scores by October. The #2 school needs my scores by November. What should I do?!</p>

<p>Remember, testing days for ACT= Sept & Oct
testing days for SAT & SATII's= Oct & Nov</p>

<p>THANKS =(</p>

<p>I thought..
1 Choice: Take ACT Sept, again in Oct Take SAT II chem Oct
2 Choice: Take ACT Sept, again in Oct, Take SAT I Oct
3 Choice: Take ACT Sept, again in Oct, Take SAT I Oct, SAT II Chem nov</p>

<p>What do u think? :(</p>

<p>you can usually "rush" your scores so that they are recieved on time...those are three quality SAT II marks, I would take the Sept. ACT and SAT II Chem in October...</p>

<p>You might have to just settle with 750--it's oretty good--if you want the ACT that much....maybe you should just not do ACT altogether...If you think you're fine with ACT then probably go with choice 1...</p>

<p>however....</p>

<p>I'm retaking two SATII's in oct, and I'm doing ED at a school that needs application by nov. 1.....I also have to retake my SAT in nov.....I'm somewhat in the same dilemma...but I found out that you can just rush your SAT scores and it will be acceptable....</p>

<p>well, i'm doing a similar thing. SAT I will be in Oct and SAT II's (Bio M and Chem) will be in Nov.</p>

<p>a 750 in chem is NOT the end of the world. it won't realli matter between a 750 and 800 xcpt maybe a little if you're applying for engineering or science programs. </p>

<p>otherwise, SAT I matters more. don't waste your time taking something that won't make or break your chances. focus more on building your ecs and essays</p>

<p>Ooh thanks guys..
So this rushing score deal.. how does it all work?</p>

<p>Not sure, I think you have to call collegeboard and ask for it to be rushed....If you find out, please post here....as I'm also willing to know...</p>

<p>Rushing scores is usually useless. (See the parenthetical comment in the link below.) </p>

<p>Interesting concept...I also heard that ED applicants get mailing priveleges anyways....</p>

<p>A 750 Chem is not that bad. The other two should help you, so I don't really see a need to retake at all. I would focus on the SAT I or the ACT, because colleges put much more weight on that than SAT IIs.</p>
