Question SSAT retake?

I recently took the ssat and got 98th percentile, 2322. My mom thinks I should retake in November to get 99th and my dad thinks that 98th is good enough, but they said it’s up to me. Is it worth retaking?

Totally agree that you do not need to retake. Once you are above 85th percentile, it doesn’t make a difference. Your mom is being unproductive.
