<p>Check the colleges you are applying to now a days many colleges superscore, in other words, they will take the 800 from this one (since it can’t get better) and lets say you get a 760 on the Math in the next (but a 780 in CR). Your total score would be 1560, because they take the best of each section.</p>
<p>Also I would suggest taking the ACT, because you might do better, some kids do better on the ACT than the SAT and vise a verse. DS got a 34 on his ACT, but only 1390 out of 1600 on his SAT, colleges used his ACT for admissions since it was higher. DD got a 30 on ACT, but a 1360 out of 1600 on the SAT, thus they will most likely take her SAT for admission</p>
