Answer 1

Depends on the type or level of colleges or universities you are trying to get into. For most public and private colleges, it's pretty good. For Ivy League, not so good. Take it again since colleges will take the highest scores for each section. It doesn't hurt you at all. I wouldn't recommend taking it more than three times though. You typically don't increase your scores that much unless you get some serious (translates to expensive) tutoring. Good Luck. You'll definitely find a college that will be a good fit for you. Just don't get dissapointed.
