<p>I am applying to a quite competitive science internship. I got 800 CR/750 M/720 writing. I am perfectly happy with my math/CR scores, but the writing one is a bit low.</p>
<p>I’m not sure if I should retake it in march… I mean, how much will a science internship care about the writing score?</p>
<p>Thoughts are appreciated.</p>
<p>if you think you won’t go down, i’d say go for it. just practice writing and vocabulary</p>
<p>Retake. I had similar to you: 800 CR/770 M/680 W and I retook and brought my W up to 750. Totally worth it! :)</p>
<p>meh i just got 670 reading/800 math/770 writing on the january test…it was my 2nd time already, should i take it a 3rd time to try and get my CR up above 700?</p>
<p>Hahaa nooo way!</p>
<p>no way, 2270 is all you could possibly ask for and over 700 in writing means youre smart anyway so i dont think they will care if its 720 and not 750</p>
<p>Don’t retake if you have better things to do. If you’ve got lots of time to study, do it.</p>
<p>haha I’m in the same situation. 2270. 680 CR, 800 M, 790 W (superscore- 700 CR, 800 M, 790 W = 2290) I MIGHT retake much later (during senior year) but this year I’m done with sAT’s. so I would suggest you retake in senior year if you want. and your lower writing grade will not affect your chances into a SCIENCE internship</p>
<p>Probably not. CR and M are more important than W and your scores for those are good.</p>
<p>I would. Writing is the easier to improve and you can gain a lot of points with a bit of studying.</p>
<p>math is pretty easy to improve, i think.
and for a science application, math scores would be most applicable</p>
