[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I looked at this last year after my DC took the SAT, and I found no hard data to suggest that retaking after you have gotten 1500+ is worth the time. Instead, I found many instances of admissions officers/counselors saying it does not make a difference once you get to whatever score the school deems sufficient. For an explanation of how this works, you may find this video helpful. It is a 2024 presentation on highly selective college admissions put on by the Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth. The speaker is Paul Kanarek, co-founder of The Princeton Review. He does a really good job of breaking this down at around 30:30 on the video. I hope you find it helpful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2m_d_vJCLqM [/quote] Great video I had not seen before -- thanks for sharing -- to quote, "Once you go north of 1500, you don’t take these tests again…you’re not going to get any additional advantage."[/quote]
