Does taking SAT1 for 4 times have bad impact on admissions?

<p>Why don’t you just call your dream school’s admission office and ask, “If I take the SATI more than once, how will my scores be presented in my file?”</p>

<p>The GC at our school, who was once an adcom at a top tier school, says the only person who sees all the scores is the clerical employee who puts your file together. If the school superscores, then that employee will grab your best section scores and compile them. If the school doesn’t superscore, that employee will grab your best overall score. This way…in theory…the adcom reading your file only sees the distilled, best information.</p>

<p>Note, statistics on score improvement after the second retake do not support your confident prediction of a 200+ point gain. For both your dreams and sanity, I hope you are doing something drastically different to prepare for the 4th test. Personally, I think investing in a couple of one-on-one sessions with carefully selected test prep consultant is your best shot considering your test history and emotional investment in this issue.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>
