<p>Your SATs are a little low as of now, but if that's what your scores look like from the first sitting...considering that SATs scores usually go up in the retake, I think you'll probably be in good shape.</p>

<p>Good luck on the essays.</p>

<p>You're a great candidate so far. Your SATs will definetly go up in OCT, especially if you go through the blue book.</p>
