It would be safe to assume that the average person would do their best on their 3rd attempt as they have more familiarity with the test.</p>
<p>This is probably NOT what you want to hear but I improved by 80 my second time, 100 my third, and 60 my fourth. I worked my way from a 2020 to a 2260…</p>
<p>I’m one of those people that is never satisfied (I almost wanted to take it again to get over 2300…), so I’m sure you have better things to do on your Saturday mornings. Good luck!!</p>
<p>To be honest, you will do better each time, but studies have shown that each improvement is only marginal, an average of like 30 points, not saying you shouldn’t retake it, but dont expect to improve dramatically by taking it again, unless of course there was an extenuating circumstance that caused you to do poorly</p>
<p>I took the SAT twice. Once this January (as a junior) and at the beginning of this month (as a senior). From January to October, my scores in every section went up 30-80points. I feel that if I took the test one more time, in the spring, my scores would go up again, but only slightly.
I have friends who take the SAT at EVERY test date. I feel that’s stupid and a waste of time and money. In the span of one month, your scores will barely change and my friends have even seen scores go down dramatically (50-100 points) because they are agonizing over the exam.
SO I think that taking the SAT 3 times, at the begging of Junior year, end of Junior year and beginning of Senior year is the best strategy. You should leave months between each test so you can really study hard and improve your score. Taking the test back to back 3 or more times is ridiculous and may cause your score to go down after a point.</p>
<p>I think people do better from their first to second and they still improve from their second to third but probably not as much. I had a 150 increase between my first and second and only a 20 point increase between my second and third. Granted, I did not study as much but I believe you will increase because you become more familiar with the test (:</p>
<p>Took it 3 times and my first was 1630, second 1980, then third 2060.
My super-score is 2080 because I got +20 on Math from second one.</p>
<p>Logically and statistically, students would do better the 3rd time around.</p>
<p>And, obviously, as CC has shown, the amount of studying directly correlates to the amount one’s score increases.</p>
<p>Took once in spring sophomore year and once fall junior year. Junior year score was 60 pts higher but superscore was 100 pts higher.</p>
<p>I went from 2220 to 2340-- while taking it again certainly gives you the benefits of familiarity and more study time, the higher you get, the higher the risk of scoring lower than your previously highest score!</p>
