What would you choose?

Applying to College
1

<p>My last SAT in January went not so well as expected…</p>

<p>What would you choose?</p>

<p>Chem 650
Wh 680
Math 750
Phy 760</p>

<p>or</p>

<p>Wh 680
Math 750
Phy 760</p>

<p>I can cancel the chem test tomorrow… I am almost sure that I wont be able to get 700+ and most probably about 650-680
Would you cancel it? bear in mind that I send these scores only to Dartmouth, harvard, yale and princeton. All my other school only received the latter.</p>

<p>anyone???</p>

<p>Schools generally only view your highest scores. You can also choose to only report your highest SAT II’s on the application (I forget how many spaces they have for SAT II’s).</p>

<p>Hope that helps :)</p>

4

<p>I already sent in my applications and score reports to Harvard, Yale and Princeton. Only Dartmouth will receive the score reports for the first time</p>

5

<p>if I understand correctly, you are asking whether to cancel the Chem 650, correct? If your college list is all Ivies, then a 650 is not likely to help, particularly since you already show strong proficiency in math and physics.</p>

<p>Texan: the collegeboard did away with SAT score reporting about 6-7 years ago.</p>

6

<p>Yes that’s exactly what I want to know… should I keep the Chemistry score on the list… or should I cancel it… I still have this option till this upcoming wednesday</p>

7

<p>Assuming you aren’t applying to a highly selective engineering program, or MIT/CalTech, IMO, it won’t matter much one way or the other. The 650 is easily surpassed by the strong physics score, and it won’t put you in the auto reject pile, if that is what you are concerned about,</p>

8

<p>then I will probably cancel it… because if I get even worse than 650… than I really have a problem…</p>

<p>So I am gonna fax the request tomorrow to Collegeboard…</p>

<p>If anyone has any additional suggestions… please comment</p>
