For a Finance major, how big does the SAT CR play/indicate?

Applying to College
1

<p>Hey. I am a high school senior who is applying to some of the top tier business schools as a hopeful finance major.</p>

<p>My only dilemma/problem is:</p>

<p>My SAT scores indicate that I am better in English than in Math:</p>

<p>My Highest (Superscored M and CR section( is:</p>

<p>CR - 760 (Oct. 2007 SAT)
M - 710 (Jun. 2007 SAT)</p>

<p>My previous scores were:</p>

<p>CR - 680 (Jan. 2007)
660 (Jun. 2007)</p>

<p>M - 640 (Jan. 2007)
670 (Oct. 2007)</p>

<p>So will this hurt my admission chances? (I know that business is more math orientated but I am pretty good in math but just better in English…either way I am analytical which will help me in the business field.)</p>

<p>Also I have:</p>

<p>Math IC - 670 (May 2007)
AP Calculus AB Exam - 5 (May 2007)</p>

<ul>
<li>I retook Math IC on Nov. 3rd and I am pretty sure it is above 700.
I also took Math IIC on Nov. 3rd and I am quite confident it is above 700 or at least 670 and above.</li>
</ul>

<p>I also have As in all my math classes and am currently taking AP Calc BC.</p>

<p>So how do you think my avg. scores in math (As compared to my high scores in English) will affect my admission chances?</p>

<p>I am applying to EA to Georgetown’s McDonough School of Business.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>I think you’ll be fine, your scores aren’t that low, and you’ve already understood calculus well enough in Calculus to get a 5 on the AP Exam.</p>

<p>Looking on the bright side, they might be pleased to have a candidate with a balance like yours, since most candidates probably skew the other way.</p>
