Hey there,

So I’m a rising senior and haven’t taken the SAT yet. I took the ACT for the first time in June and got a horrible score, much to my dismay, because I really thought I was more suited for the ACT. Little did I know that the SAT is a much better test – for me, anyway. I have been taking practice SAT tests in the Blue Book and average at around 2100, more or less, and I’m quite satisfied with that so I plan on taking the SAT.

Can I take it in October, November, and December?
I am considering applying ED/EA to a particular college, for which the deadline is November 1st. The rest have December/January deadlines.

I heard that I can take the November SAT and still apply ED, is that true?
Can I take the SAT during those 3 months? I really want a high score that truly reflects my abilities.

Thank you so much!
