Is it normal to have application remorse?

Standard, well-rounded applicants in the top 100% of the SAT profile for selective schools are routinely rejected. The SAT certainly plays a role, but by no means is it the only factor. I’m not sure I agree with the idea that it’s better to have a GPA that’s 0.3 pts higher than an SAT score 300 points higher. Would you rather have a 3.82 and 2300, or a 3.85 and 2000?
