ash, your post is in the wrong place. This sub-forum is related to UVa's class of 2012. I'm guessing your 2013.

try posting it here:

or here.

when you repost, you need to mention if your In-state or out of state. It makes a huge difference since UVa is a public university. If you're in state, you should be fine. It's good that you are taking the SAT over but you may also want to think about taking the ACT. It's much easier. The ACT is geared more towards the basics you learned in high school while the SAT is a reasoning test. You should really consider taking it.
