25 is ok. the first time i took i got 27, 2nd time 24, and 3rd time 20. LOL! luckily the schools pick the highest one, not average those scores.

25 is a good score, definitely nothing to be ashamed of. It’s really your choice though weather or not you want to take it again. I would if I were you though. Just so you can see if you can improve on it any, maybe giving you a better chance to get into the school of your choice. When you take it a 2nd time you feel more confident because you feel as though you know whats on it and you kind of know what you need to prepare for before you take it. Taking it more than two times can syc (don’t know how to spell that) you out though, so beware. You’re actually more likely to get your worst score the 3rd time that you take it. Good luck on what ever you decide to do!

That’s not a bad score; however, I would still take it again because it doesn’t hurt and you might do better the second time. I raised my score by 3 pts the second time I took it.

if you just wanna go to a state school, i don’t think you need to retake it. check collegeboard.com and see if you’re in the middle 50% for the schools you’re looking at. as long as you are, you should be fine.

You really dont have to but if it makes you feel better go ahead and retake it.
