Whatever the reason, I kept improving each time I took the SATs. I went from an [spoiler=because not everyone likes seeing these]1800 to a 1910 to a 2060.
Go figure right?
It doesn't matter all that much to me since I got into some pretty nice colleges with the scores I had. JHU rejected me on the spot, though I was accepted everywhere else. I have buds who had 2360's and what not, and some of them are going to ivies and MIT, but that's kind of ridiculous unless you have a fast working brain or a hell of a lot of initiative to study for it. I had neither, so I'm happy with what I had.
It'll be a while for AP exams to get out. I'm kinda worried about BC Calc and Classical Mechanics... I'm fairly good at both, but I was a little edgy at the time and didn't study nearly as much as I should have.
AP's are a lot more beneficial for college, don't focus too much on SATs.
