is my SAT score too low?

My SAT scores just came out and I got a 1540 with 790 M and 750 ERW. My ACT score is 35 C with 36 R 36 E 35 S and 34 M. Are these too low for a college like Northwestern or WUSTL? I’m worried that I’m going to have to take the SAT again to bring my ERW score up.

Congratulations on your great scores. You’re done.

What about the rest of your application? GPA, EC’s etc.

@TomSrOfBoston
GPA is 4.74 W and 3.98 UW
I’m in all honors and AP classes this year and all AP classes next year.
I have a lot of volunteering and am in my school’s advanced research program, NHS, medical club, and first saxophone in band.

I hope that I’m not missing anything…

Fantastic score and grades - well done! Follow your passion for ECs and work on your essays and you are on your way to a very successful college admissions season. One piece of advice might be to start considering who will write your recommendations - these can help distinguish you from other high-achieving students.

@suzy100 @collegefan101 thank you, both. I was just worried that my scores are below average for Northwestern, especially my ERW score on my SAT.

Your ACT is better. Submit it. You are done.

With a 1,540 or a 35, you are done. best of luck. Worry about the rest of your app.
