Yea, you are right about that. I don’t want to come off that way at all, nor is it an accurate representation of me. I honestly dreaded studying for the SAT this summer and believe it is a meaningless test. I am satisfied with the overall score. Yet, the math performance was uncharacteristic so I really believe that I could and should a much higher math score. Northwestern 75 percentile is 780 in math, and I want to apply for the math heavy MMSS program if I am accepted. Thus, I think a high score in Math on the december SAT will benefit me for MMSS as well as if I am deferred to NU. Most schools have score choice, so I don’t have to send it in if i don’t do too well.
