<p>My GPA's low for those two schools (3.81 UW, 4.54 W). The rest of my scores.. SAT-2260, SAT II-790/740, ACT-34</p>
<p>I can avoid sending my SAT II scores if I send my ACT. Would a 740 hurt that much? I'd like to send my 790 and 2260, and I'm worried it'll look fishy if I don't send in the second SAT II score. Any opinions are appreciated.</p>
<p>740 is great. Just send it and the ACT. Why not?</p>
<p>Umm seriously? It’s a 740 dude. Check that box and send it!</p>
<p>Send them all. You look fantastic.</p>
<p>Only in CC-land does someone think a 740 is too poor to send.</p>
<p>And BTW, your GPA is not low for these schools.</p>
<p>Wow! a 740 is bad? Only on CC</p>
<p>Send it. Once the score is past the 700 mark all is good with marginal gain for points above.</p>
<p>OP: I feel you. </p>
<p>Everyone is saying baaah…it’s good send it. And one said that anything over a 700 is OK. But I’ve been more inclined to believe what I’ve heard that, for Ivies, anything over a 750 is OK. That said…My D’s TOP SAT I score is a 740 and she’s sending it. That is theoretically over 750 because each score really just represents a range. And all your other scores are higher, so why not just send it. It’s not a downfall, it proves you’ve got all high scores. They’re not ALL going to be 800s (well, they are for some!), but they’re great. Send it. And BEST of luck because my D is applying to Brown with very similar scores! 2210, 780, 750, and 34) So I HOPE they’re good enough! BTW…my D sent ALL scores (all SATs and ACT). FWIW.</p>
<p>@R: I hope they’re good enough, too! I’ll send all scores, even though that’s almost $100 more (and from my own wallet-yowch).
@everyone else: Yes, CC seems to be a mecca for neurotic people. :P</p>
<p>Best of luck to everyone!</p>
<p>My S is applying to Brown. 2210, 800, 740 and (gasp) 680. The 680 was in US History. He plans on being a physics major. The 800 is Math II and 740 is Physics. He’ll also have completed Linear Algebra and MV Calc. I’d bet lunch that the admission decision is not going to ride on that 680 score.</p>
<p>Is this a joke? A 740 is more than fine. Don’t worry! CC is just freaking you out (:</p>
<p>I say generally your 740 is good–for most subject tests, however some subjects like chinese, korean have percentiles that are extremely scaled towards the high range. Chinese, for example, has 43% of its participants scoring 800, and a 740 would be 18th precentile. On the other hand 740 on Lit would be a beautiful 92nd percentile. A quick google search gave me this chart <a href=“http://www.4089962002.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/subjtestpercentileranks.pdf[/url]”>http://www.4089962002.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/subjtestpercentileranks.pdf</a></p>
<p>Thanks for the link, hollow. My 740’s in Lit… Jesus, a 740 in Chinese Listening is at the 18th percentile. With my broken Chinese, I could probably score in the 2nd percentile. :D</p>
<p>Keilinger - Brown’s median SATs aren’t as high as 740+740 out of 1600 (or 740+740+740 out of 2400). I don’t know why you’d think a 740 on any scale would be below their norms.</p>
