Ever since the new SAT's have come out (with the new scoring and stuff) I'm really confused as to what's considered good. I got a 1710 and I know it's not bad, but is it good? Also, how many times should I retake it? I'm a junior and I took it at the end of January. My councilor (who seriously doesn't know what she's talking about half the time) said that I should take it in the begining of my senior year that was colleges get an updated score and that's what they want. Is that true? The reason I doubt her is because she's told students they're not good enough to get into certain colleges and then the students end up getting full rides there. (Like one of my friends and UNC Chapel Hill.) Also she doesn't let students take the classes they want. I want to work with kids and she says that I need to take AP and honor classes rather than "wasting your time taking foolish early childhood education classes" Isn't that total crap?! Anyway, I just wanted to know if I truly have to take the SAT's any more because I've already gotten the scores to get into the college I want to go to. (ASU) and I planned on taking them this summer just to see personally if I can improve, but I'm guessing I'm better off waiting until August or Sepetember.

Anyway, summed up - what are the new 'good scores'? Also, should I just wait until schools starts (I'm not wasting money taking it more than twice)? Okay, I think that's really all I wanted to know. I guess my question didn't need to be so lengthy, so sorry about that.
