| Sometimes when you're ahead of the average student you do better on the SAT II's, which test the more advanced topics. Don't worry, It's fine. | |

| The SAT is trash in general. The ACT is the way to go. | |

| for SAT 1, it was my first time w/o any prep.
on the other hand, i studied day and night for my SAT II scores.
i think its just a matter of my preparation for the test.
and yes, I'm also taking the ACT in September | |

| If you decide to retake the SAT, do the prep work so you don't make rookie mistakes that bring your score down. Search the forum for the xiggi method for a self study or pick up a study guide or take a class. It makes a big difference. | |

| yeah, thanks for the advice.
I started getting free tutorials from this professor.
he was a former SAT prep teacher for PR, but he retired.
he's showing me some tricks that will help me speed through certain sections :] | |
