for you super smart kids that are worried, think of the rest of us that are not 2300 sats and realize that you just added to our worry. you don’t mean to but if you are a 2150 or a 2200, do you even have a shot. so of course we look at a 2300-2350 and go you have got to be kidding. schools like cornell admit them left and right. i read all the time that it is not the sat that gets you in but how many 1800-2000s are really admitted to super good schools. all admissions and some kids say it was the whole package. i just don’t think I believe it. i really do believe that schools with 20,000-30,000 apps look at an app and if it is a low sat and or gpa, if the person is not an athlete or minority or something they need, them it auto goes in the reject box.
