You're right, that's a low score and it might hinder your chances of getting into USF. It's not too late to try to take the SAT's again! I realize it's a pain, but it will give you a better shot at getting into your dream school. The SAT questions are very formulaic and you can improve your SAT score by taking practice tests. See if your parents will buy a test prep book or sign you up for a prep class. There's no need to take the most expensive class out there, but if you or they can afford USF, then you or they can probably afford an SAT prep class. If not, your local public library or school library will have SAT prep books that you can make some photocopies from for your studying. Focus on the sections that were more difficult for you.

Check the average SAT Score at USF, take it again if you think it's necessary.. and join an extracurricular activity : )

I have never taken SAT before. But I think you should retake it and do better. In addition, try to break the ice and join an extracurricular activity,
