How many times did you take the SAT/ACT, before you got the right scores

I'm still trying to do better, next time should be it.(Sadly I will have to wait until May). 4

I only took it once cuz I knew I was going to a JC and just wanted to take it out of curiosity. I got a 2100 though so I had a boost in confidence for about a week.

I took both just once and did well enough for myself. It ended up not even mattering, really.

What kinda tests are they? horgen123

I got a 1540 (old 1600 scale) on my first SATs and a 34 on the ACT; saw no need to take either againxaos

Sure you did.

I got a 1900 on my PSAT, and I hope to take the SAT in June for the first and last time.

Standardized tests, and like the other user said... Used by universities in the US/Canada (at least I think it is used in Canada) for admitting students...

1 time each ...1980 on the sat and 30 on act...didnt really feel the need to take either again...that and mixed with my b+/a- grades...didnt really have a problem gettin accepted anywhere

I don't know about "right scores", but once was enough.

took the SAT twice, only like a 400 point difference. 1680 is my best score i think.

I took the SAT once got an 1870 and was satisfied- didn't really need it for CC anyways

I took the SAT twice. My first score was a measly 1680, and my second a mildly satisfactory 1940.

Passed the SAT first time.

I took the SAT once as a sophomore and once asjunior.

Zero..they don't have them in Canada. Suckers.

Took the ACT once and got a 34 (which is apparently the top 1%?). I didn't see the need for the SAT after a score like that.

Didn't you say that you never graduated college or am I mistaken? l4dak47

I took the SAT twice, better score second time. I don't remember what i got tbh. I didn't bother with the ACT since my SAT/gpa was good enough for the college I was aiming for.

I took the SAT once, was happy with my score, and then I was accepted into the college I wanted to go to, so I saw no need to take it again. I've never taken the ACT.

I only took it once and after that I just decided to go to community college. That test was way too long for my liking. -___-

Got a 1400 or so my first time :D This is back when it was out of 1600, mind you. I was good after that. I think I got like a 21 on my ACT but iirc California schools do not really use that.

The thing is two of the colleges I want to go to have a minimum SAT cap. I have exceeded the Critical reading requirement, but I am still below in the math portion(I just needed 10 more points last time). Anyway the deadline is June 1, so I will have to reach my goal on the test in May. On the 26th of that month hopefully I will have met the requirement. The funny thing is my GPA is great, and my regular math class grades have all been great. It sucks when you don't test well though :lol: .

I took it twice. I did decent on them, but I got into a solid school so the score didn't really matter in the end.
