<p>Excatly because it is so hard not to miss one. When you take the SAT, you might misread a question or not comprehend it correctly or just think the wrong answer on accident. 2400 is such a beautiful score because it shows that you are not only intellectually capable for the SAT, but also you are meticulous and can hit an 100& accuracy.</p>
<p>colleges take pride in rejecting perfect scorers...tests are not the be all end all for admission</p>
<p>depends on the rest...to ace a test is nice, but eh, in the grand scheme of life, inconsequential</p>
<p>f.scottie: how valuable are perfect sat or sat ii scores in princeton admissions?</p>
<p>^^ I hate it when people don't read...look at the damn previous posts</p>
<p>err, i did. some people think perfect sat's indicate intelligence and some don't. however, my question stands, and i would appreciate a helpful response.</p>
<p>also i mean, how valuable are these scores in rd (rather than ed)?</p>
<p>one more perfect scorer, who's already sent in her ED app:</p>
<p>er</p>
<p>Im 2400/36/800,800,800,800/8 AP 5's......3.6 GPA.......</p>
<p>............</p>
<p>...</p>
<p>slacker! :)</p>

<p>everybody says I will get rejected from all ivies. and stanford.</p>
<p>u probably will.....</p>
<p>damn!</p>

<p>screwedhopeful -- this should reassure you

<p>36'er applying to chicago and princeton:</p>
<p>I don't kno if it is just me or someone else is thinking the sme but..... Do u have to get a perfect score or even 23+ to get into princeton?. I personally do not think princeton is looking for a perfect score. I think they are actually looking for a devoted student. more lyk DETERMINATION and not necessary PERFECTION. Proof...? Well I have a friend who got into Princeton with a
13sumthing/1600 (old SAT). I dont know really.
But the fact is that 2400ers are scaring me in cc. U guys clearly have the scores to get you into princeton. Infact, if anyone should be scared, it should be me.....International who has not yet seen his SAT score he jus did in october and KNOWS its not a 2400....</p>
<p>where internationally?</p>
<p>Nigeria, Africa</p>
<p>floridian pulls 2400 on first try (albeit with some serious prep); princeton among parents' faves:</p>
<p>reading that article and reading what she says just reinforces the view that lots of these 2400 kids are socially stunted.</p>
<p>Yeah her life sounds miserable. Good job - she'll be a highly intelligent shut-in who has countless academic accomplishments but no real life, no social involvement, no boyfriend...</p>
