<p>I am from Puerto Rico, and like so, I’m no familiar with the SAT, nor everything else that american universities requires. I will like if somebody will introduce terms like unweight or weight GPA, or the standars for the SAT. I will really like to be in a good university, but I’m a “little” lost in what I am supposed to fulfilled to make it happen.</p>

<p>Plus, I am secretary of the Math Club, member of the National Honor Society, and from the Arts and Literature Association. I participate in the Math Olympics, and in short-movies from the TV department of my school. Next year, I am hoping to take:</p>

<p>If you’d like to know SAT standards, go to collegeboard.com and search for a college (<a href=“http://apps.collegeboard.com/search/index.jsp)%5B/url%5D”>http://apps.collegeboard.com/search/index.jsp)</a>. The college’s profile will show up and you can see their middle 50% SAT ranges for accepted applicants. Here’s the Univ. of Florida for example:</p>

<p>SAT Critical Reading: 560 - 670
SAT Math: 580 - 690</p>

<p>So, 25% of people who were accepted to UF had critical reading scores below 560. 25% of people who were accepted to UF had critical reading scores above 670. Same logic applies for math.</p>

<p>Hope that helped a bit.</p>
