[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC's dream school has mean SAT of 1510 and median SAT of 1520. DC scored 1510.

Is 1510 submittable or should she retake again? She doesn't want to if possible to move on. Her GPA is 25th percentile for the school, and SAT seems close but just a hair below 50th percentile.

She definitely will not go TO but she is just tyring to figure out if she's done now or needs to retake another time?[/quote]

I'd let her decide, it is a lot of work and stress to re-take it.  You'll never know what made the admissions difference either way. [b]This will be judged by her in hindsight, let her know she is the only one who can decide where to put her limited time/resources at this point.[/b] [/quote]

1510 is a great score! At this point, it’s up to her where she wants to spend her time and at what cost. For some kids, taking it again would be very stressful. For others, it would not, especially knowing it’s all upside with a 1510.

Let her choose what’s best for her so she feels ownership of the results. [/quote]

PP here. DD has thought about it and decided to stop the madness and not retake. We're doing a celebration party tomorrow night at her favorite restaurant followed by her two besties sleeping over!
