So many delusional parents think their above average kid is “super smart.” They’re not. Your kid is a dime a dozen.[/quote]

The poster said "smart kids have already taken it." When people say smart on here, they seem to be referring to kids with 1500+ sat but that is wayyy above average in real life. Way above just "smart." Smart is 1300+ in my opinion. [/quote]

[b]I think in this case "smart" just means "smart about the college process".  Those who are better informed about the process take the test earlier in Junior year so they have more time for repeat testing, and more flexibility with timing for repeats, e.g. not having to take it at the same time as AP tests.[/quote][/b]

If they do mean smart about the process, students taking algebra 2 as juniors should probably wait to take the SATs until the spring of their junior year when they are done the class.[/quote]

Exactly. My kid took algebra 2 as a junior and took march and June of jr year. Of course, in normal times, that worked out fine (my kid got a great score btw). [/quote]
