So I took the SAT in June and got a 2170. This was my 2nd time taking it and although it is a good score I’m not sure it’s good enough for schools I plan to apply to (like Duke). Should I try taking it again or should I try the ACT which seems better suited to my skills (like science).
If your second score was a drastic improvement from your first score, then I would recommend you take the SAT again and see how it goes. If not, then don’t bother. Just keep in mind: 2170 is still a good score!
I know friends who took both SAT and ACT and found that ACT was relatively easier since it was more applicable to them with materials that they learned in class. So if you have time, then try giving the ACT a shot.
