[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have read that kids typically score better in the verbal later in high school.[/quote] This is why it's better to wait a bit longer. There's no reason to take it before you are in the ballpark of scoring to your highest potential (wherever that may be) and fall junior year is typically the earliest that happens. You can always retake in spring of junior year or fall of senior year if needed to bump up one section or the other, but starting sophomore year risks burnout - kids sometimes resist retaking multiple times.[/quote] The SAT uses some material covered in 11th grade (vocab from English class, examples from humanities etc, math) so they rec spring of 11th grade. Take it early if you want but 11th graders might have better comprehension of the concepts and nuances being tested. [/quote]
