<p>I’m an Asian student and I’m applying for full scholarship to a university in another country in Asia. It is not compulsory for Asian students to submit SAT score but If you choose to submit, it must be at least 1800. My score is 1890, however, I see that most others students who apply for this university (especially from the US) score over 2000 in the SAT test!
I’m so confused. I want to submit the SAT score to make my application stand out from students from my country and prove that I have an good attitude towards studying things I am not required to. On the other hand, I’m afraid that people in the commitee, who are used to seeing 2000-and-above SAT scores, will look down on my result and consider me incompetent.
So should I submit my 1890?</p>
<p>No - I don’t think you should submit the score. It is in my opinion low for a full scholarship.</p>
<p>Oh, I’m sorry. I forgot to say that I’m applying for a scholarship exclusive for students in my country only ( an organization in my country will pay for the scholarship,and this university only helps to choose the best applicant and train him/her). We have been shortlisted to 8 students only,and I guess none or only one of the others had the SAT score. This round is the final round to pick out the most deserving, and I’m so confused…
That’s the whole picture of my situation. Could you please help me to decide?</p>
<p>Any advice? The deadline is approaching:(</p>
<p>Honestly, you never know unless you try 
it’s worth a shot, it’s not like you got below 1800 :P</p>
<p>Do you think that the commitee will be a little bit lenient to me? I am Vietnamese and none of the other 7 on the short list have SAT score.</p>
<p>Your score is excellent, assuming the countries do not have English as a major language. They would NOT ask for scores over 1800 if they would not consider 1810 etc.</p>
<p>Be proud of your score, I think people are comparing apples to oranges. There are colleges in the US that would give scholarships for scores above 1800, maybe not full, but something ($15,000 US per year for example).</p>
<p>Thank you, but I’m still hesitant:(.Any ideas else,guys?</p>
