Does Wesleyan consider SAT2 to be very important?

Actually no one except an adcom teammember can answer your question with any credibility. I do know that my son’s high school college counselor–the best one in northern California who guided my elder son into Wesleyan two years ago–would say that your SAT1 score is the key issue. He would suggest at least a 2200 overall. Wesleyan does not do a numbers only review of ED and RD. Wesleyan says that they look at your entire profile, and the strength of your academic record–difficulty of courses/GPA in those courses, theteacher and counselor recos and the Comm App essay you wrote are all part of the mix. You can have a 2400 SAT and 4.4 GPA and still not be admitted. They look for a certain overall class profile and no one here has any idea what would be missing in that profile by the time your app is reviewed by AdCom. good luck.
