<p>So i took my first SAT and got a 2230. Does this look better or worse than someone who got a 2000 their first time and a 2310 the second time. Does doing well once look better than someone who screwed up the first time and tryharded to a decent score the second time. I’m tryna get into UT austin with top 7.1% class rank (not auto admission). I have mediocre extra curriculars etc. Lemme know college experts</p>
