third time's the charm?
i am retaking for a third time in december hopefully scoring a 166-169. my previous tests were dismal (150s low 160s). i only have a 3.6 so i figure i have a decent shot at t 25, namely ND, Emory, IU-btown. will this third attempt be held against me? do i need an addendum?

Only write an addendum if the third score is substantially higher (6 points or more) than the two prior scores.

Re: third time's the charm?
What are you practicing at? You should always expect a drop in score from PT's, For June my PT's were 165-166 range, and I got a 160. For October I was up to 168, and got a 161. Not saying you should expect a 7 or so point drop, but be realistic. Either way I suggest you write again, they give you the option to write 3 times, if you're not happy, then do it.lolol10 wrote:i am retaking for a third time in december hopefully scoring a 166-169. my previous tests were dismal (150s low 160s). i only have a 3.6 so i figure i have a decent shot at t 25, namely ND, Emory, IU-btown. will this third attempt be held against me? do i need an addendum?

Really? My scenario fits this exactly. Does it depend on what school you're going to?CanadianWolf wrote:Only write an addendum if the third score is substantially higher (6 points or more) than the two prior scores.
