SAT again,,,???

<p>I have taken SAT twice so far, and my aim is HYPSC or that level. </p>

<p>1st: CR: 670, M: 760, W: 760
2nd: CR: 670, M: 790, W: 670</p>

<p>The combined is 2220. </p>

<p>I'm considering taking another one on October or November in my senior year. </p>

<p>Do you think it's a good idea?
I wonder if it would hurt me if my scores get lower than now.
Or taking three times is too much??
Or if I just don't take SAT anymore, would getting this score in my Junior year help, because they would take into account possible improvements although I didn't actually show that by taking it again??</p>

<p>If I were you, I wouldn't take it again. I would just concentrate on SAT 11. Harvard's website says that taking a test more than twice offers "diminishing returns".</p>

<p>"diminishing returns" in a way that college sees the scores or how high the scores turn out to be??</p>

<p>lol well i'm not exactly sure, but ive heard more than three times is not good. I took it four times, but i felt like i had to because my math score was very low. Although ur CR is good, it is a little low for HYPS. I guess it wouldnt hurt any thing to take it again if you think you can bring ur CR up.</p>

<p>I don't know if this helps, but I'm an Asian, and English is my second language. I came to US in 9th. Still, I guess for HYPS my CR better be high,,,</p>

<p>Your CR is really good and thats impressive that english is your second language and you scored a 670. If you feel like you could get it into the 700s, why not take it. I don't know how colleges look at your background as far as first and second languages. If this helps any, I had a math score in the low 600s, and I took it a fourth time and brought my math into the low 700s. So, taking it again could definitely help your overall score, but im just really not sure how colleges view taking the SAT numerous times.</p>

<p>A 2220 is an excellent score though.</p>
