Answer 1

Did they change the SAts?  1600 is the highest you can get . . .  ACT's i think is 32.

Answer 2

Err. 1600 isn't that good if you are planning on attending a decent University.

I suggest getting an SAT Prep Book like the Princeton Review.

Or you can go to an SAT Academy like me.

Answer 3

The highest score for ACT is 36. For the new SAT it's 2400. If you only got 1600 out of 2400 I'd definitely take it again, especially if you're looking at good schools. A 640 I'd say is average for an SAT II. Don't take SAT Subjects unless you feel you can do really good in them. If you have time, I'd take all of it over again. Get a prep book and really study. Practice a lot and know where your problems are, and then get help. A little fun fact is that girls tend to do better on the ACT than the SAT. But you have to watch out. ACT's problems are easier, but it's heavily limited by time and if you're not fast, you won't do well. But yeah it's good to take all the tests at least once to see how you do. What grade are you in? If you have time you should consider doing all of them again.
