Question

<p>Is it possible to get in to a HYP type school with</p>

<p>2150+ sat scores
really good grades
really really good recs
excellent community service -800 hours
several national awards
an impressive community initiative in another country with international support
a good application- with a good video and all of the other things</p>

<p>BUT not so good sat 2 scores</p>

<p>i mean scores like 670, 620 and 530</p>

<p>any help here. i just need some thoughts</p>

<p>You’d have to give some more information (exact GPA, class rank, SATs, ethnicity, etc.).</p>

<p>Possible, but unlikely. Pick up a prep book and just study for the tests. You should be able to improve.</p>

<p>It is possible but you would need a hook like URM status, legacy, money. If you dont have one of those 3, the only way to be competitive is to have every aspect of your application be strong, and even those who have strength in every facet of their app get rejected. Dream to get in but don’t bank on it.</p>
