<p>I know that my SAT scores are low, I am retaking them in November. I do not know whether the Nov. scores will be accepted or not, but I believe that with a strong resume and excellent letters of recommendations and a good essay, I should be able to overpower the SAT scores. What do you guys think?</p>
