2

<p>Too low for Emory, probably OK for the others.</p>

3

<p>I know but should I retake… will Emory or the other schools think it’s bad… i don’t know what to do</p>

4

<p>If you think you can improve, definitely retake.</p>

5

<p>Buy and read the Blue Book, and take practice tests. Then take it again. It couldn’t hurt. =)</p>

<p>Many students, maybe even most, take the test more than once, and most schools “superscore”. That means they take the highest score you made on each section, no matter which time you took it, and add those to get the score they use for evaluation. They might be impressed by a very high score in one sitting, but that is more like bonus points in their minds. Taking the test 2-3 times is OK. More than that might raise some flags, I suppose. So don’t worry that you are taking it again, just prepare as well as you can by practicing, as was said above.</p>

<p>If you really want to go to Emory I would retake the exam. Emory is a competitive school.</p>

8

<p>Does UCF superscore?</p>

<p>if you are an international student, definitely retake–especially if you are trying to get financial aid. standards for international students are much higher than for U.S. students, as there are many less spaces available for them at the colleges you list.</p>
