This is a actually a great idea. There is nobody doing this right now.
It will make you stand out... getting perfect scores more than once in both SAT and ACT.
I read about a kid who did that. Really mastered the technique. Didn't stop until he was arrested.

1550 seems to be the minimum international kids from Asia strive for. With all the test optional makes sense it’s higher now.

a few years ago when my older DC applied, we were told 1500 was the "magic" number...now it's 1550??? I assume the TO environment and test range inflation is to blame?
