<p>Hey! I just got my SAT scores in and I’m wondering where I stand for these colleges (I just put them down as an indicator of general types- I’m just a junior, so these aren’t necessarily the schools I’m going to apply to; most of these names came from post-PSAT emails). I’m pretty interested in linguistics and in language-related stuff in general, like foreign languages and writing.</p>
<p>Swarthmore
Yale
Brown
Bowdoin
Rice
Rutgers</p>
<p>PSAT: 230 (80 CR, 70 M, 80 W)
SAT I: 2270 (750 CR, 770 M, 750 W)
SAT II: 730 French, taking Math 2 and Lit in June</p>
<p>I don’t have a GPA because my school doesn’t calculate it. My total IB score last term was 37 (out of 42), an average of 6.2/7.
No ranks either.</p>
