Should I retake?

Test Preparation
1

<p>I’m planning to sign up for the SATs for May - but I can either choose subject tests or the SAT.
This is my first and only score as of now
CR: 760
M: 740
W: 730
T: 2230</p>

<p>Is my score good enough for most colleges (ex. Berkeley) or should I retake?</p>

<p>It’s good enough for any school, including Berkeley. It puts you above the 50th percentile at every school and above the 75th percentile at most schools other than the ~top 20 schools. You’re not a senior though so it doesn’t really matter what you take next because you have time to take both once or twice more each.</p>

<p>Study more and you can get a 2300+, which will ensure your testing as not the reason for denials</p>

<p>Impesssive scores. Dont retake. </p>

<p>Most selective schools dont differentiate on test scores (or GPA or class rank). Once you are in the top 1% they are ingnored and they will look for something else on you app that sets you apart. </p>

<p>Focus your time on your essay, Berkely lists that as most important.</p>

<p>those scores are great; there’s no reason to retake. you should focus on preparing for the subject tests, especially if one is in your intended academic field.</p>

<p>Only retake if you are confident that you can improve your scores. Otherwise, a retake is not necessary.</p>
