1490 vs 1510 SAT

Are you an international applicant? Even if you’re not, Asians will have the highest stats at Stanford, males will have higher for STEM majors. As publisher mentions, why the 1510 comparison, you’ll going be going up against 1550 or higher for the Asian spots at Stanford, maybe even higher for the international spots from India. The issue for you will be 1490 vs 1600/36, not 1490 vs 1510.
