Sat?

Applying to College
1

<p>I have about two days to decide whether or not to retake the SATs for a 3rd time again in October before applying ED to NYU.</p>

<p>My GPA is pretty good(A- average, with a terrible chem teacher that brought every kids gpa down included with the school giving a note saying how most kids in her class did much worse than they should have). ECs are decent, nothing is truly spectacular(I did get to work for a production studio in LA this past summer for a week and also have written a 106 page script in my free time). SATs are not great. On my SAT IIs I got a 620 on Lit and a 600 on Bio, but those are done with. My best SAT score out of 2400 is 540 Math, 670 CR, 630 Writing. It's not terrible, but it is still a low score for my ED school(NYU). Now with all that information, note that I HAVE NOT been studying for the SATs and am now really debating whether or not to sign up and study hard somehow for a month for the test. I think it's very possible that my scores will go down which is why I do not think I should take them again. Is it a good idea to take them again even with the strong possibility(really just lack of time) of lowering scores?</p>

<p>if you really think that they will lower then don't lol. why would you even consider taking them again?</p>

<p>When did you take it for the first time? If it's been a little while, your general math and reading/writing skills may have improved.</p>

<p>Although you haven't been studying, it wouldn't be surprising if your scores actually went up.</p>
