Is my college list feasible???

<p>

For much of the schools on the OP’s list - Boston, American, GW, etc. - an 1860 is actually a very decent score and for others

</p>

<p>It is - my apologies to the OP and any others who read this thread who thought I might have indicated otherwise. </p>

<p>

for others - Brown, Columbia, Harvard - adcoms will look past the weak SAT scores for other credentials that make the candidate look impressive before coming to a judgment.

</p>

<p>Yes, and I think I conveyed this sentiment accurately in the statement that you quoted. Holistic admissions mean that the other portions of the OP’s package will be considered; however, we should bear in mind that they will not “look past” the scores but consider them to have parity (in terms of importance, that is) with other aspects of the applicant’s package. That’s all.</p>
