Can anyone relate to me?

I took my SAT twice. I hadn’t really prepped a whole lot for it to be honest outside of the occasional collegeboard question of the day. The first time I scored 530 reading, 570 math, 610 writing. The second time I felt like I bombed reading, increased my math score by at least 50 points, and I honestly felt like I dramatically improved writing. The reality was that I had increased my reading to 570, math stayed exactly the same, and writing dropped down to 570. I can’t really say exactly what happened, but I think it all comes down to the test for that day. Some days you get a set of questions that you can consistently get right and others you don’t. I personally wouldn’t be incredibly worried about it. I ended up getting accepted to my college of choice with pretty decent scholarships and I got a lower score than you did. The SAT is really only part of the application and your score is still above the national average by about a few hundred points.
