Should I take the SAT I or SAT II in Nov.?

Test Preparation
1

<p>I'm applying ED to a school (deadline is Nov. 1st), but I don't know whether I should take the SAT I or SAT II. I'm registered for the SAT II (but if I need to, I'll switch or be a stand-by taker). I took the Oct. 8th SAT I, and I don't think I did as well as I hoped, so I may have to take the SAT I again in Nov., but here's my question:</p>

<p>I've already taken the new SAT three times, would four times be overkill? I'm confident I will score 50 points higher on Nov. SAT I, but will colleges care about a 50 point increase (top tier schools or Ivies)?</p>

<p>I need two SAT IIs, but I want to retake one (so I planned on taking it in Nov.). I'm satisfied with my other score, but I have a 650 in physics and a 630 in math 2 (I'm certain I can bring the math score up to at least 700+).</p>

<p>Should I just take the SAT I in Nov. and send two previous SAT II scores (760 chem, 650 physics) or try to get a better score on the math 2?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Before Oct's test, it is a 1290 (750M, 540CR). I'm really hoping to bring it up to a 1400 (wishful thinking!). I know I didn't get higher than a 750 on math this time around, so I'm praying for a 650 on the CR..</p>
