<p>My test scores:
Math 2: 770
Chemistry: 750</p>

<p>SAT #1:
CR 580
M 750
W 610 (59 MC, 9 E)</p>

<p>SAT #2:
CR 620
M 720
W 650 (68 MC, 7 E)</p>

<p>I'm a rising Senior planning to take the SAT again in October (or November?) and (possibly) the ACT in September. Is this a good idea? What do you guys think?</p>

<p>I'm looking at pretty top schools (not ivies, but Northwestern, WashU) and I think I'll really need to get my SAT up with only a 3.5 GPA. But even with a high SAT, ik I have a low GPA. So is it worth it to retake when I have a low shot at top schools anyway?</p>

<p>Currently your SAT is 1980. If you feel you can do better, retake it. Getting a higher score can only allow you to have more options to choose from.</p>

<p>Yes, you should retake it and focus some more on your ECs to make up for your GPA. That will raise your chances of being accepted.</p>
