Doing worse.

So, last time I got a 760 on Math II and was retaking it this time. I failed miserably this time (bad day, I guess). Am expecting a low 700.

..Uh, I'll be retaking for sure.. (for the 800)..but..is this going to be debilitating to an Ivy app? At worst, I could drop to a high 600, I suppose..

:/ It was pretty bad.

...Why did you retake a 760? The general rule of thumb is don't retake a 750+.

since you have that 760 for backup, why not cancel this one?

I took USH and most likely murdered that test. It was a joke to me.

Whatever, what should I do? Is this something to be worried about?
