Bad SAT score, not as long as previous one

Question

Hey there, I took the SAT a few months back and I don't think it's too good. I plan to take it again maybe in Nov, but I have a question about the the scores. If I do worse than my previous SAT test, will this bad score replace my previous SAT score? If so, should I take it again? That's a bit risky methinks?

Answer 1

colleges are only supposed to look at either your highest score in a single sitting or the score created by combining your three highest section scores (superscoring)

that being said...they will still see the scores for every test you take

Answer 2

Depends on how good  or bad you think your present score is.
