Welcome to the HSBBWeb! There is another thread under "recruiting" entitled 'Clearinghouse'. You many find some useful information there.
1.) Yes.
2.) No.

Best of luck.

I would only add to what iheartbb has said, and that is try to have son take SAT in a second sitting, too. Research shows that scores increase with a second sitting. Have him take subject tests in May (when the APs are given - so if he is taking any APs he doesn't have to study twice). Also, if possible, try not to have him take any tests again in senior year- very tough to get back into the study mode after the summer. Perhaps also consider taking the ACT (with writing - not every school needs the writing, but some do, and so don't limit the choices).
Sounds like you are on track - good luck!

but if he does retake in senior year (many do, it is just a little tough to re-study for it), then make sure he doesn't take them too late for the applications deadlines.
My son took the SAT twice. Scored ok. Took the ACT and did really well. It was what helped get in him!
thanks for all the good info
