Take the SAT a 4th time?

Test Preparation
1

<p>I'm applying to Harvey Mudd, and there's particular merit scholarship that they potentially give to students who have:</p>

<p>Verbal: 700+
Math: 750+
Math iiC: 750+
Writing: 700+</p>

<p>Rank: Top 10%</p>

<p>I basically qualify for all of the above, EXCEPT that my verbal is 690!!!!! I know many people say that taking the SAT 3 times is enough, but I'm confident I can raise my verbal over 700 this time. (I took one of my SAT"s sophmore year). Thus, I was wondering if I should take the december SAT to raise my verbal over the 700, so I could qualify for the scholarship. Please respond.</p>

<p>any one want to respond?</p>

<p>If you have the time to spend then go for it. 3 or 4 times a college will probably regard them as the same. but if you would rather take the time to raise your satII then you should do that.</p>

<p>Contact Harvey Mudd, and see what they think of your predicament.</p>

<p>If you have time, I would do it. Just make sure to only send the scores to harvey mudd, that way if the scores are bad, it wont mess up your app to other colleges.</p>
