ok the first time i took the SAT's i didnt even know what an analogy was lol. I got a 930 total. I took it again and got a 1000. I was very discouraged at my scores and realized I was spending way too much time on non-important stuff and it wasn't a test based on my knowledge but how well I can take a test.

I bought a book called 10 Real SAt's and on the practice I've raised my score to a 1220. ofcourse this was a practice test and ill be more nervous during the actual thing bc it counts. I was wondering what is the most increase u've seen or had on the actual test? and will admissions look down at me because I will be taking it three times? Someone said it will look desperate to them.

Don't worry, I suposse you're not an Ivy wannabe,so you should definitively try again, If you improve, that's better for you.
