Sorry, but grades/ec activities are WAY more important

Based on data regarding the fact that a 2350 is much > than a 2250 for an unhooked candidate, the SAT is kind of based on luck if you score above a 700 per section. Getting an extra question wrong due to guessing or misbubbling could bring you down 20-30 points and your total score could actually be dented by “careless errors”. Not to mention, there would be a big difference in your score if you get 2 wrong or 3 wrong (a gap of maybe 40 points)!. But for those who score below 700 per section, the SAT is pretty indicative.
