Going to College? SAT?

Question:I took the SAT in high school. I'm in Santa Monica College now. I didn't do so well in my SAT when I took them. And to be honest I don't even know my score. (I thew them away) And I know its a requirement to submit them to the the college I want to transfer to. Is it still possible for me to re-take the test, to do better.

Answers:
Hi!

First, good luck filling your transfer application!

Yes, most colleges require the submission of the sat scores, even for the transfer admissions. I believe you can easily find your score on the www.collegeboard.com web-site. If you are really dissatisfied with it, then you could prepare for it a bit and retake it - that will help.
If you get to find your score from the collegeboard site, then I would suggest just to send that score and not to retake it. Remember that transfer students get admtted mostly for their work in college environment. If you have a GPA of 3.3+ and some extracurricular activities, good recommendations, then you're in goo shape. 80% of transfer admission criteria is your college work. Your sat or high school really doés'n matter that much. You could also try to talk with the current students of your chosen colleges ans ask why they got in.

Good luck!
P.S. I will also apply as a transfer this year. I am studing in Europe, and I will shoot for US.
Totally!, you can retake the SAT... Also, i think you can sign into Collegeboard.com to look at your previous scores.

Anyway... GOOD LUCK IN McGill !!!!!!!! (i answered other questions you posted)
