I’m a rising senior. Junior year scores are:

october 2012 (no studying):
-math: 600
-reading:640
-writing: 780

UGH.

january 2013 (studied):
-math: 710
-reading: 710
-writing: 730

march 2013 (studied esp. for math but made careless mistakes…)
-math: 650
-reading:720
-writing:800

i already signed up for the SAT for october 2013 and i know i can do better, especially on math and reading. ive been working on making less careless mistakes and calming my test anxiety so i really think i can pull off higher scores. i know penn will look down upon taking the test 4 times, but i’m even more concerned about that drop in math.

is it even worth applying anymore? or should i apply somewhere else that has score choice and superscores so i can have my 2230? thanks!
