<p>OK folks. Here goes.</p>
<p>I need to get a certain score for the MU Honors College so I can go directly into the school of journalism as a freshman. I don’t want to wait until late sophomore year to apply.</p>
<p>That means I need a 1280 M/V score on the SAT for the journalism scholars program or a 1460 for the Walter Williams scholars program.</p>
<p>From all the practice tests I’ve been doing (and that’s a lot), I’ve been ranging to a 710-800 on CR. I think I can do pretty well when it comes to that section, so I’m not too worried about it.</p>
<p>As for math, I’m in a rut. I’ve never had much of a math foundation, and I’m currently taking geometry and algebra II at the same time. Don’t ask, long story…</p>
<p>The last SAT I can take is in January. Do you think its possible for someone with my terrible math background (I mean terrible) to score a 480 - 570 through tutoring and study? I get tutoring 4 times a week and just set up a study schedule for the SAT. </p>
<p>And, dare I even ask, a 660?</p>
<p>I know basic algebra, but I just started geometry and Algebra II. This is why I’m not taking the ACT, which goes up to trig.</p>
<p>Any opinions?</p>
