<p>I've asked this before, but never really gotten any good advice. Sorry if I'm being annoying.</p>
<p>So I'm a senior in high school who wants to take the SAT again (WHAT!? hehe). I've already taken it twice before, not studying either time and getting around 1800 total (~600 each). I've turned over a new leaf and am trying to patch all of the slacking that I've done. I want to study and take the SAT again for a few reasons. I've already started studying.</p>
<p>Reasons:
1. I want to have done my best and not regret slacking for SAT.
2. I want to have a decent SAT score if I decide to transfer during college, which might be likely because I don't feel my high school record reflects my ability/current ambition.
3. I believe some of the skills the SAT builds are valuable.
4. If I'm waitlisted somewhere maybe they'll consider recent test scores. </p>
<p>Valid reasons?</p>
<p>So in order for my SAT to mean anything, I'll have to take it before I finish high school in June (correct?). There are three test dates until then:</p>
<p>March 14
May 2
June 6</p>
<p>I'm currently registered for the March SAT, but I don't think that will give me sufficient time to practice, even if I've already started. With the new score choice in mind, should I just take it in March anyway (I realize some schools will want all anyway if I decide to transfer)? Would taking it in March and May or March and June for a total of four times be bad? When will scores be released for the March or May test (so I'll know if I need to take again)? Also, if I'm scheduled for March can I like reschedule to May without paying anything? Any other advice? Goal is => 700 each section. </p>
<p>THANKS!!</p>
