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.



Well, I do agree that it is hard for anyone to get admission to good schools with low gpa. But, believe it or not, SAT doesn’t carry as much weight as gpa in most cases. As a result, I’ve seen plenty of rejects with 2300+ SAT scores while people with much lower stats get in at the same college. You can rest assured that little differences in SAT scores, in most cases, won’t end up making a difference in the end.
