<p>Hey guys, I took the SAT CHEM TEST in June, and I only got 730 on it. I want to go to Brown University, and I wonder if the score is too low for it. Should I retake the test in October???? what do you guys think????</p>
<p>no, anything above a 700 is good.</p>
<p>Well they usually say +750 for subjects for ivies... Maybe consider it? But I think curve will be worse in october than in june. It's really up to you.</p>
<p>i had a 780 in chem and i'll probably retake</p>
<p>^ lol? I'm not sure that's wise. As far as a 730 goes, it's a perfectly respectable score, but if you want to get into Ivies you may need 750+</p>
<p>Retake it if you're aiming for top-notch schools. Else, don't bother. (you're aiming for Brown, so retake)</p>
<p>i would retake it</p>
<p>@<em>poof</em> : i also believe that october has a worse curve than june's...i was wondering if this was a myth that some people believe or is it actually true?</p>
<p>I don't know, but, I mean, people who've procrastinated subjects till this year are all going to take it in October, right? So there's more competition... That's just what I think though, and I'm no expert... :D</p>
