<p>If Yale called you, I’m going to guess they wanted you for volleyball. I don’t know how reliable this is, but according to [this</a> site](<a href=“http://home.comcast.net/~charles517/ivyai.html]this”>http://home.comcast.net/~charles517/ivyai.html), there are certain academic standards for athletes in the Ivy League… there’s no hard-and-fast rule like you need X SAT score, but they’ll only take a certain number of athletes under some point and a certain number under another point. That’s why they wanted you to retake the SAT. A really good athlete is worth one of those few spots for people with poor SAT scores (although yours are pretty good, just not for Yale); a less good athlete needs higher scores to get in. So your chances of being admitted probably depend on how good you are at volleyball and how much your SAT improves.</p>
