[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]just remember when people tell you their score, they're reporting the superscore. my kids never scored over a 1500 on the paper or digital tests. but all three would say their SAT scores were 1530-1560. people say the score they reported on the common app.[/quote] This is the answer to OP’s question. People aren’t lying, but they are reporting superscores, and if you don’t understand that, you will be surprised by how hard it is to get a high single-sitting score. [/quote] Yes - and also how often kids don't even try for that. My first kid just took two tests, august/sept of junior year. Studied the math before one, and then English before the next. Had a great superscore before junior year really took off. My next two did the same thing. It's not unusual to tackle one side at a time. Why not. Take a third if you want to improve somewhere [/quote]
