Should I Re-take SAT?

I'm currently a Senior in HS. I took the SAT during my Junior year and I did poorly. (960). I am scheduled to retake it this Saturday, but I can't help but wonder to think if it's even worth it. (SAT is waived)

Out of HS, I'll be attending CC --> UC. I applied to CSU's without realizing that medical schools typically don't accept CSU graduates.

Since I'm going to CC then transferring to a UC would the SAT even be necessary to re-take?

If you're going to CC then there's no point in retaking it.

Yes, this was my mindset. But is there a chance that if I transfer from CC-->UC, will the UC consider looking at my SAT results?

I don't think the do. Here's a link to the transfer requirements for UCLA and there is no mention of them looking at a SAT at all.

Hmm, alright. Yeah I was just a bit worried that when transferring, they'd mention the SAT and it'd cut my chances of being accepted. Thanks!
