黑料不打烊

hi! if you鈥檙e taking the sat twice, you might be able to get an sat super score (you鈥檙e best reading and math sections from each test score you got) this can add a couple extra points overall if you didn鈥檛 significantly improve your second attempt, so don鈥檛 worry!! If might be enough to get you a 1200+, or if you do amazing on your second attempt (which you will!) you don鈥檛 have to worry about it! Good luck on your applications!

Hi Addi! This is a question I had as well until recently, and yesterday I was able to ask an admissions counselor what to do. He said that unless your score is 鈥渓ow, like in the 900s, a score can鈥檛 subtract from your profile, it only adds.鈥�

If you鈥檙e still not feeling sure about whether to add it to your application or not, you can look at the percentile you placed in. It will show you how you did in relation to everyone else, which might help you make a decision based on logic rather than intuition.

You can also take the SAT again, it鈥檚 likely that your score will go up or your composite (combined) score will be higher than the first time you took it. Some helpful resources I used for SAT practice are Khan Academy (free), the Princeton Review SAT book ($23), and Aaron鈥檚 SAT book ($30). These resources helped me increase my score by 290 with less than a month of preparation, but I recommend getting more than a month.

Good luck with your application!!
