<p>I’d really love to go to a HYPSM kind of school, but the one thing thats REALLY bogging me down are my standardized test scores… i keep on making all of these silly mistakes in the math section of the SAT and my psat score was a 180, not nearly enough to get into an ivy. Id love to reach 2100, how do i even go about doing this?</p>

<p>Unfortunately, few unhooked admits will be admitted to HYPSM even with 2100-area scores.</p>
