<p>Ok, the issue is fairly simple</p>
<p>I've taken the SAT two times already with a 1930 and 1950.</p>
<p>I have the option to take the last third one in three days. I am absolutely not prepared, and I know it.</p>
<p>If I take this SAT and get it over with, I will have much more freedom with test dates.
But If I don't take this SAT now, this is what my schedule will have to be:</p>
<p>ACT in September
SAT II Bio/Chem and Math2 in October (Btw, which science would be the better option?)
SAT I in November
[Or I can take sat I in October and vice versa, but that would be kind of hard because ACT and SAT II Subject Sciences would go nicely together in terms of studying material...]</p>
<p>Receive Score reports and send by before or at mid December</p>
<p>The downside is that, I will not be able to do Early Action...</p>
<p>So the question is, should I get it over with, or leave it till NOV/OCT and practice till then?</p>
<p>If I'm getting any of these wrong, please re-explain to me what they are... I am still learning the world of college entrance...</p>
<p>And a side-question:</p>
<p>I’ve heard that it is best to get a combined score of 1400 Reading and Math… I have a 1300 combined.
I think I have almost no chance of going to the university I want… which is Brown… Input please T_T</p>
<p>Another Side question:</p>
<p>How common is it to see students raise their scores by a good 100~300 points?</p>
<p>I so need to quit skim reading people’s posts.
I misread the first two lines and thought you said you took the SATs in 1930 and 1950.</p>
<p>Anyway, if you’re fine with your scores–then take the test in three days. College’s take the highest score anyway. If you really want to improve your scores, then wait. It depends on where your prerogatives lay.</p>
<p>Lol;;; </p>
<p>Im really not fine with the scores I’ve gotten
I’d like to say im very uncomfortable with them ;_;
I really want at least a 2150</p>
<p>Will someone suggest to me which SAT i should take first? Subject or just SAT 1?</p>
<p>You might as well take it this weekend.</p>
<p>Just asking, does that mean a 1950 is an acceptable score for a top-tier school such as brown?</p>
<p>hhaha im retaking it this weekend too…im so nervous…i barely did any prepping at all.</p>
<p>i scored only 1820 my first time i’m such a ****ing failure…i hope i can break at least 2000+</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I think it is if you’re a URM :/</p>
<p>1950 is not acceptable for Brown.</p>
<p>If it makes you feel better… my score went up 300 points from the one diagnostic test I took. :P</p>
<p>omg…
for that 20 point jump, I did not study even one bit…
I think I’ll just take it in october then… I really need a 200 pt boost…</p>
<p>lol thanks for the effort… that made me feel worse :P</p>
<p>@NewAccount Thanks for being at least frank with me, everyone dodged whether I could make it or not. I should raise my standards</p>
<p>Just being realistic with you, my friend. Here are some more facts for you: The middle 50% ranges from 1980-2310. This means that 25% of enrolled students (we may assume these are minorities and recruited athletes) have below a 1980 and 25% have above a 2310 (insane statistic).</p>
<p>You definitely want to be in the 2200+ area to have great chances.</p>
<p>Thank you, I really appreciate it :DD</p>
<p>Anytime! I’m also a prospective Brown applicant for 2015. :)</p>
