<p>Hi,
I am a high school senior. My October’s SAT 1 results was not good. I got 1910 with CR 580 Math 680 W 650. I am not sure if I should apply scripps and its scholarship. I don’t know if I can get in. Here are my some other stats:</p>
<p>SAT2 Bio : 750
SAT2 Math 2c: 780
AP Bio, AP Psychology, AP Calc AB: all 5s
My 9th - 11th GPA is : 3.67 (My 9th grade GPAs are 3.23 and 3.0. In my junior year, it raied to 4.0 and 4.0)
My school does not rank.
I went to a very academic excellence high school in California (ranked in the top 50 in US News)
I am taking AP Chem, AP english, and AP statistics this year. The AP Chem is very hard in my school. In order to keep my GPA, I do not think I will be able to make time for SAT 1. I feel I am running out of time.</p>
<p>Anyway, other stats are: 4 year marching band. National Honor Society. 500 hours in community service. Good clarinet player (I won some music rewards).</p>
<p>Though I like scripps, I don’t know if I can get in because my SAT 1 is not good. Should I complete and submit the application by 11/1? Is there any hope?</p>
<p>Congratulations on your AP scores- those are particularly impressive. Due to the competitiveness of the scholarship, I’d say your SAT scores are a little too low. As for admission in general, I can’t say. In the admission process itself, your GPA, APs, curriculum rigor, SAT 2s may make up for the lower SAT1 scores. </p>
<p>Unless you are applying ED, I’d suggest holding off and using the extra time to make sure your essay and supplement answers are well-crafted, visit campus (if possible), do an interview (if you haven’t already), etc.</p>
<p>And remember to breath 
It’s hard to believe now, but in just a few years it’ll be difficult for you to even recall what you scored on which tests.</p>
<p>Nerd, I would not be so quick to write your chances off. My D is a Scripps sophomore. Her GPA was 4.5/5.0 (or 3.6 on a 4.0 scale). That was just top 20% of her class at a small, mid-western public high school. Her ACT was 27. (I don’t think most people at her school have ever heard of an AP course and no one takes the SAT.) She has a lot of special talents though and really made her application shine. She included an athletic supplement as well as a music supplement, and her essay was pretty memorable too. She visited twice and interviewed, and applied ED. Scripps really does look at more than grades and test scores if you give them more to look at. D is constantly amazed at the intelligence and talent of her classmates and commented recently that she doesn’t know how she ever got in. My reply was “not everyone’s genious can be measured by a standardized test”. Thank goodness for us that Scripps is a place that agrees.</p>
