<p>I missed out on the Duke TIP Search and didn’t take the SAT in 7th grade with most of my peers, so I took it in 8th and got a 2270 (750 CR, 750 M, 770 W). Unfortunately, I missed out on most scholarship/camp opportunities and didn’t really do anything with my score. 
Personally, I think you scored really well for 7th grade; I only have one friend who scored in about that range at your age. I’m a rising sophomore now and am planning to take the SAT again next spring, so I’ll see how I do then (I’m really hoping for that 130-point increase). Good luck on winning that scholarship, and in school in general!</p>
