[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So I genuinely don’t understand the responses here. Assuming retaking doesn’t add much stress/take time away for the kid, given that most schools superscore, why not take another stab? I ask because DC had a similar score but retested and now has a significantly higher superscore. Sure, it might not matter in the end, but maybe it could, given superscoring. [/quote] This is not 1490. Most kids retake and retake but can get better superscore. At this level, it’s increasingly difficult. [/quote] DC’s didn’t do better the second time but with superscoring, composite went up by 40 points. I guess I’m saying that with superscore, there is nothing to lose, so take the test and see what happens. [/quote] I would agree that "no prep" retake is fine. There is little to lose. Another point is that your DC's result is an exception. It just doesn't happen often when you break 1540.[/quote]
