SAT score of 1530
Answered

I got 1530 in my third SAT test, and I am going to apply IVY LEAGUE, do I need to try another SAT targetting for 1560? I am a IMO (Intenational Math Olympic) participant from New Zealand.

No. 1530 is great. Also, maybe you can superscore? But that's not really necessary

I would say no. A 1530 SAT is good, and if you have already taken 3, I would say focus your time on starting essays and polishing up your resume. It also depends on what grade you are in - if you are a junior, I would say definitely don't take another one. Good luck on your college quest!
