<p>does SAT scores matter much if you are an international applicant?? Or do they give more weighting to your high school GPA and exam grades. </p>
<p>I have a perfect 4.0 GPA and gaining 4As at my A-level studies but my SAT scores are not exactly top notch. Do i still have a chance at any of HYP?</p>
<p>since u have a perfect GPA, if u have good ECs then I don’t think SAT’s shud be that much of problem for you.</p>
<p>well…sat does count…big time…and did u calculate that gpa just on the basis of grades? which subjects had u given???</p>
<p>for my a-level im taking biology,chemistry, maths and psychology</p>
<p>You are assigned a GPA even though you are taking ‘A’ levels?</p>
<p>yeah we have a GPA based on GCSE and A-level grades</p>
<p>Interesting, because my school doesn’t assign any GPA for us.</p>
<p>Anyway, take a shot at HYP if you really want to go there. Things do happen.</p>
<p>SATs definitely matter, but the extent to which it matters should differ from school to school.</p>
<p>does applying ED help this situation in any way?</p>
<p>Well, the deadline for ED is over, I guess.</p>
<p>I already applied ED for Princeton. do u noe if they are rlly strict on SAT scores or if they take a more holistic view of the application. I do have very strong ECs</p>
<p>u will be at a disadvantage i guess…</p>
<p>Hmm, the problem is we don’t really what your exact SAT score is. :D</p>
<p>you can find my full stats on the princeton thread under “ED chances!!”</p>
<p>In any case, since you have already submitted your app, just pray for the best 
No point brooding over it anymore.</p>
<p>yeah…just wait and pray for all the luck…btw i am doing the same</p>
