If you take the December 3rd SAT you will get your test score by 12/16 and colleges will get the scores by 12/26. Therefore you will have a chance to decide who gets what if you do not achieve your intended score. So this is good news for you.

Seriously consider the investment of a couple hundred/few hundred dollars in an online best SAT course like SuperTutr. if you need to bump your score 100 pts. Sometimes it's not more practice tests that make the difference but a strategic method to attack the test to improve the probabilities of getting the correct answers. Remember this is not an intelligence test but a test in seeing if you can be resourceful in achieving a high score. While this sounds counter-intuitive, that's the truth. IQ will not help you get a perfect 1600, but someone telling you how to attack the test properly will. It's sort of like CHESS, you can play 1000 games and still suck at it. Or take chess lessons and be decent or great in a much shorter amount of time.

Hi! So if you look on college websites, it will tell you when the latest SAT is that they're accepting. And I think most schools are accepting the October SAT at the latest. But again, check the website for the school that you're applying to, or ask your admissions counselor for that school. Hope this helps :)
