<p>International student here, I left off the SatII's until January because... well I had to find out about them in my junior year on my own inittiative. ok-> SATI (800/700/680), gpa (96%), ec.s, interviews... </p>

<p>Anyways, I've had a horrible December/January (unexpected move + parent issues + several other extenuating circumstances) and prepared for the wrong SATII and so on and so forth-- I am entirely convinced that there is a higher force playing with my life-- and laughing at me. I was sick all of last week, and today, I knew something would go wrong so I woke up early and got on a cab and went to the wrong place (I was looking at the ticket from last testing!) so I had to walk from there to the actual testing location (I had no idea where I was going-- had to ask around several times/ next time I'm carrying a map)-- BARELY made it on time, coughing, sneezing and the whole works and started on mathiic-- It was horrible. I had this HUGE headache, felt nauseated, and this was stuff I knew (although it has been a while since I've done pre-cal), yet I think I did horribly. I don't want to cancel my results because the schools I've applied to require these results-- but god... :(</p>

<p>Is there anyway I could let the schools know that I will do them again (in April -- I know I am a senior, but I cannot accept defeat! Even if no one cares!) is there anyway that I could make these results totally not ruin my chances at every school I've applied to?</p>

<p>I am past the point of sniffing now. I wish I had a cookie. :(</p>

<p>1) Calm down. Your SAT I is not bad at all, and your GPA is quite good. SAT II's count a lot less than either. </p>

<p>2) You probably did a lot better than you think you did. I took the SAT I for the first time on my birthday during my junior year. I had a terrible cold (it was December), and I kept sniffing and sneezing up a storm. People kept giving me dirty looks. :D I was convinced I had failed, but I did well.</p>

<p>3) E-mail the schools you applied to. I don't know where you applied, so I don't know their policies. Some may allow you to take the SAT II's again or the ACT instead. What they'll probably say, and I agree, is that SAT II's make up only a very small portion of your application, so don't worry about it. 700+ on each SAT II will not keep you out from any school. </p>

My mom was laughing at me (since I'm the one depressed), since English is like my second language... and I got a 800 verbal... and don't plan to major in anything related. I wish I could switch the mark with Math. I suck. :(</p>

[kchen]

<p>How did you prep for the Verbal section then? If English isn't your first language, that is really amazing to score high on both the Verbal & the SAT II Literature.</p>

<p>Ummm guys, I have a 3.8, 2110 SAT as 1st semester junior, and i just discovered that you must submit ALL your SAT IIs. When I was a freshman, I got a...du du DU......560...on the SAT II Bio. Yes, a 560. No joke, a 560. I'm not kidding. Excuse me, I have to go cry now. Goodbye.</p>

<p>I think it was my teachers fault...</p>

<p>That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!</p>
