Hi so I’m currently a junior and I just got back my SAT. I received a 1430 (710 CR/W and 720 Math). This score is 100 points higher from my previous score. Would it look bad to take the SAT 3 times? I feel like I should, maybe in August so I can thoroughly prepare, since my score improved immensely only from barely self-studying. If I got a tutor and studied for a few months, I feel like I could potentially improve again. Also, I would possibly like to major in engineering, and my math score might be slightly on the low side. On my PSAT I got a perfect score on math so I feel like I could go higher. I’m taking the ACT for the first time next month. Maybe I’ll happen to do better on that anyway. Any thoughts?
I would say to retake. With studying you will improve.
No, retake. It doesn’t matter too much about how many times you take it. Just makes sure to keep on improving. If you end up doing well on the ACT (33 and above) just focus on your ACT. Hope this helps!
(PM me for advice on how to improve lol)
