Do you think it is worth it to retake SAT2 physics (760) in october? I'll be in AP physics so maybe I could do better...

isnt there a special test option where they give you 30 extra minutes if you have ADD? call collegeboard about that because 1 of my friends with ADD took the SAT with extra time. Not sure how it works for subject tests though.

I am a rising senior. I'm not some jerk freaking out about a 790 or something, but I honestly don't know how SAT2s are scaled and whether 760 is actually good (the only Ivy for me is Columbia, if I don't get in, meh). I've only taken one other SAT2(800 USH), so I know that was good but, how fast do these things depreciate?

^ lol. I'm not freaking out about my 790. It's definitely good enough for any school. I was just so close to my goal.

Here's a percentile chart of all SAT subject tests: http://www.collegeboard.com/prod_dow...ntileRanks.pdf.

yohenry, you should probably get extended time for that. Talk to a psychologist/counselor and get tested and approved

^ on that chart, the lower percentile means the more lenient the curve right?

damn. 740 on literature. worse than I thought. And this is so borderline that I don't know whether to bother retaking or not.
