<p>I just received my November scores, and I got a 2060 (Cr:730, M:580, W:750). I am really disappointed in my math score because it is only 30 points higher than my first SAT math score. I feel as if the uneven balance in scores is my weakness. I want to apply to really good colleges but my math score decreases my competitiveness drastically. Is it worth paying extra money to register for the November SAT with the sole intention of increasing my math score? I would also register for the December SAT for subject tests so I could apply regular decision to one or two schools that require them. Do colleges look poorly upon taking the SAT more than twice?</p>
<p>@NotSteveBuscemi Do you plan to take a Math or Engineer Degree (anything involving math)? What college you want to go? Do you fell that if you prep enough for Math, will you improve in November. College don’t care how many times you take the test. </p>
<p>In my opinion, you should retake Math.</p>
<p>You could try to just test for the Math I or II since the math for that is much difficult than the SAT’s. If you do well on the Math I or II, colleges might replace the SAT score with the SAT II score.</p>
<p>I plan on retaking math. I am also going to enlist my sophomore geometry teacher to tutor me because he is oddly obsessed with SAT math, and I feel like improvement is definitely possible by the test.</p>
<p>Would colleges look poorly upon me if I do worse on the reading and writing sections the third time I take the exam? I’m really satisfied with those scores, and I am not sure if I can do better by chance on another test, which means I would probably do worse. Even though superscoring is an option, many colleges request that all testing scores be sent. Does having a worse score on the most recent test look badly?</p>
