I agree with IxnayBob about our answers being geared toward the more selective holistic schools that don’t have merit scholarships. There are many fabulous schools that have merit money, and striving for the best score in that case is a totally different situation. As a psychologist though, I still think that taking the test too many times is a disservice to our kids. Once they get in college, there won’t be too many do-overs like that.
