Pulled all nighter for my first SAT

Should you retake depends entirely on the caliber of university you’re applying to. Look at the SAT data published on CB and make sure your score is at least at the mid point. (Of course it’s entirely possible to be rejected even if you’re at the 75% mark).

As for sleeping, you can either use something artificial (Zolpidem, alcohol–though obviously just a little) or give yourself some better mental preparation. You already have that score, and you’re not going to increase by more ~100 pts, so there’s really not much on the line. Or if you’re really not able to sleep, take naps during the day and bring a few redbulls to the test.
