When I graduated back in the 80s... I only had a 2.3 GPA going for me. Then I took the ACT and SAT. My 30 and 1290 got me on all sorts of University lists and even landed me a national merit scholarship. When my GPA was looking like community college was going to be my only choice.
Of course I made the stupid choice and blew off that scholarship and went to a community college to study a three year photography degree that I'm not doing anything with... so what good do my high scores do me in the end?
At least you can retake the SAT and you have an idea of what to expect now. Study for the parts that you had trouble with and most importantly, make sure you are well rested before the test. It really does make a difference going into it with a clear head.

Gullible isn't in the dictionary.
