SAT - is the fifth time the charm?

Test Preparation
1

I have taken the SAT four times and so far my highest score is a 1600.
Should I keep taking it again or just give up ?

Why would you expect different results this time?

ACT?

Try the ACT. The two exams are very different–the SAT being reasoning based with the ACT being knowledge based–and most people I know who struggled with the SAT found the ACT much more accessible. Research the differences between the two (http://www.studypoint.com/ed/act-vs-sat/ is helpful) and decide if you believe the ACT could be a better fit for you.

^ I agree with trying the ACT. It’s different.

Have you prepped? You should try practicing with some review books for the exam, whether it be the SAT or ACT.

@toffee1703 i cant take the ACT bc it is not offered where I live- Israel

10

@CaliCash i have prepped but I guess not enough

11

then i would recommend prepping as much as possible and taking the last possible sat before college admissions - that gives you the most time to prep and helps increase your possibility of doing well

You could look at test-optional schools.
