<p>I'm a junior...I got a 2110 on the november SAT. I'm aiming not necessarily for ivy league but just below that like wesleyan, pomona, etc. Should I retake the SAT to get a better score? My GPA is currently like 4.1 unweighted and I'm in BC Calc, AP Chem and APUSH this year.</p>
<p>Also, what are other schools that are along the lines of wesleyan etc?</p>
<p>I'm asian so race ain't gonna help me either</p>
<p>Why not? You have a whole year and most colleges wouldn't mind seeing you take it a second time.</p>
<p>Also got a 2110 as a junior and I'm retaking as a senior. I'd suggest waiting a year as well (Hopefully, you'll learn something...). BtW, how do you have a 4.1 UNweighted? 4 is the max!</p>
<p>4.1 out of 4.5 . my school uses a weird scale i guess lol. I dunno about taking it senior year though...my community is like third richest in america and so many kids are really bright (the rest suck) most people here take it in junior year. maybe in may after ap exams?</p>
<p>edit: also, don't want to do worse than i did this time!</p>
<p>2110 is pretty good, retake only if you can think u can improve. I mean if u take the test again and get a 2150, i dunno, but if ur M+CR is alot higher than average ur good. Also most colleges cept the UCs dont give a rats ass about the writing score, so i think most schools look at M+CR. M+CR is 1350+ for most schools is good and 1450+ for ivy leagues, what was ur M+CR composite?</p>
<p>it was
math: 700-this was like 93%
CR: 710-this was like 96%
composite=1410</p>
<p>mine was not so great in CR..
Math: 800 [99 percentile]
CR: 640 [89 percentile]</p>
<p>composite 1440</p>
<p>The CR was kinda lousy... but is the composite okay?</p>
<p>i would definitely retake Antarius b/c it shows that u r lop-sided a little. Ur CR score is below the average of Ivy caliber schools. I would raise it to 700+.</p>
<p>640 is 89th percentile. If you aiming for something in science, it shouldn't hurt you too much.</p>
<p>What if you're aiming for something in the sciences but did not score an 800? I barely got a 1400 (750M & 650 CR), but I want to go into the sciences (namely chemistry--which doesn't really require much math, right?) I can't really do anything about it now, but how much should I worry? (I'm applying to Penn and Cornell and 'lower' top-tier schools)</p>
<p>Don't worry, just wait. You'll get into a good college.</p>
<p>I cant retake...
I decided on going to the US to study very late and cant retake now. 640 doesnt seem bad but I shd have done better</p>
<p>i got a 640 on the writing and an 800 on the cr... do they cancel out?</p>
<p>so i suppose i should retake it maybe in spring and hopefully get a better score?</p>
<p>please guys retake in senior year. Trust me, after another year of reading in school and adequate prep during the summer your score can really spike from junior to senior year. If you're serious about bringing up your score, preparing over this following year will pay huge dividends.</p>
<p>Son of Liberty is correct. I jumped 300 points between Junior year in May to Senior year in October</p>
<p>I second Son of Liberty's advice. Without any additional prep, apart from the practice test provided in the SAT Preparation Booklet and 4 practice 25-minute essay prompts spread over the two days before the SAT, I improved 140 points from May 2005 to November 2005.</p>
