SAT/ACT retake, or stick with it?

Test Preparation
1

<p>As of now, I have taken the SAT two times and the ACT once. The scores are as follows:</p>

<p>SAT:
1- 710 Reading, 660 Math, 570 Writing (1940 Composite)
2- 670 Reading, 690 Math, 730 Writing (2090 Composite)</p>

<p>Superscored: 2130</p>

<p>ACT:
1- 32 English, 35 Math, 33 Science, 33 Reading (33 Composite)</p>

<p>I want to/am going to apply to top universities, including Ivies, and am not sure what to do right not. Basically, I am curious if I should retake either exam or, say, just send the ACT when I go to send scores? Should I take the SAT for a third time in hopes of improving? Should I take the ACT again to maybe get a 34, 35, or 36?</p>

<p>Or is that 33 going to be fine for most schools? I have a good GPA, course rigor, extracurriculars, etc...</p>

<p>use your act score… its much better. make sure you take the sat IIs. every ivy require them. 33 is fine if you are urm. if you are not retake it and try to get at least 34 if you want ivy</p>

<p>^Agree to an extent. While a 34+ gives you a good chance, don’t forget that a 32 is the average for most if not all of the ivies.</p>

<p>What about for schools like Cornell and Yale who require I send all scores (ie. If I send SAT II scores, I must send SAT I)? Would it be a good idea to take the SAT I again, or do you think they would see my ACT score and overlook the SAT?</p>
