Hi! I need some advice on what dates I should register for. I started studying about a month ago and am looking to register for either a September or October testing day so that I can send in applications by the end of October. Should I...

1) register for the September date (less time to study, more time to work on app)

2) register for the October date

or 3) sign up for both, take the first one, and decide once scores come out if I need to take the other one

I understand that there is a high price for registering so I am hesitant to sign up for both but I do also feel like its a smart choice conceptually. Considering I have only taken the test one other time, I know I have more opportunities to take the test but it's so scary knowing I have a finite number of chances.

Any advice or additional considerations would be greatly appreciated!
