C’mon, OP. Forty points on a test like the SAT is like 4 or 5 questions. If you retake, you’re risking missing one on the math section, which will halve your gains, even if you ace the other two sections. Miss another question in math, and you’ve probably lost points! Look, nobody here is lying (except perfect36, who’s either trolling or deluded) to you; unless you’re truly obsessed (in which case, might I suggest a Subject Test?), don’t bother with the stupid retake.

And to perfect36, might I say, that’s absurd and paranoid. OP has nothing to GAIN from retaking a 2360, and plenty to lose: Time, relaxation, an entire Saturday morning, and however much one spends registering and preparing for an SAT.
