Should I take the SAT again?

<p>On the SAT, I got 440 Critical Reading, 640 Mathematics, and 610 Writing (1690 Total). I only did badly on the critical reading section so should retake the test. My concern is that If I improve on the critical reading but my mathematics and writing scores are lowered. Can I sent my highest scores in each section to the colleges? like I keep the 640 Mathematics, and 610 Writing and only enhance my critical section.</p>

<p>Sorry, but 440 CR definitely is far from enough, and I suggest you should retake SAT. And I think once you already got 610 and 640, you can definitely keep it if you retake the test.</p>

<p>You definitely need to retake.</p>

<p>Some schools will “super score” and take the best section from each sitting. </p>

<p>Get a practice book and find out why you’re having problems with the CR. Keep it by your bed and read parts of the front sections every night before sleep - great tips are there. Each night learn one or two new vocab words.</p>

<p>Are you finishing the CR sections? Are you having vocab problems? </p>

<p>What schools are you considering and will you need/qualify for financial aid. If so, keep in mind that often better FA packages are given to those with better stats.</p>

<p>Also take the ACT, some do better with that.</p>

<p>You should retake it</p>

<p>Sorry for jumping to this thread.
Can anyone offer suggestions how to improve CR score? Where to find a good tutor in my bay area?</p>

<p>You should retake it since you can choose score to submit to college. Hope you get better score :)</p>
