We were told to take it as many times as is necessary to get a decent score (whatever you are looking for). My DS took it last spring for practice (with virtually no preparation) and did pretty mediocre, and he took it last weekend and I am waiting to see the scores before registering again in December. (He has a conflict on the November test date.) Even if he does well enough on this test, I may have him take it again in December with no pressure, on the off chance he does better.

My question is, if need be could he take it on the Jan 7 date and still have scores reported to schools whose applications are due January 15. Does anyone know? I would think so since it’s all the same system, but I wouldn’t want to register for the additional test only to have it be too late to count. Fingers crossed that he (and everyone else who took it) did okay last weekend so we can put that piece behind us
