Transfer as a Junior/SAT improvement.

My S applied to an entirely different set of schools from yours (for Engineering, too) and he did not re-take. But a number of the schools allowed it and I’ve noticed some that want new SAT. Which would require a re-take for some kids who took in hs.

It is true, though, that for junior transfers, the SAT becomes less and less important at some schools.

There is so much variation that you really just need to use some of those nice, free LD cell phone minutes and call each school ;). So you don’t waste your time re-taking if it won’t help you.
