Am I HURT BAD?

<p>I was wondering if anyone could answer my question. I know most of the selective schools (such as some ivies) are taking the best scores for the SATs of applicants. I was wondering how negatively or positively my test scores will affect me: </p>

<p>New SAT I March: 800cr, 800wr, 690 m for a combined total of 2290. </p>

<p>I decided I wanted a 700 or better in math, so i retook in June. </p>

<p>June: 740 cr, 740 wr, 700 math for a total of 2180 (grrr... stupid essay). </p>

<p>So now I'm wondering, does the 700 math, which would give me a combined 2300 best score, and a 1500 of math+critical reading comparable to the old SAT, overcome the possible negative effects of having a 740 in writing and critical reading as compared to my March 800's?</p>

<p>dude dont worry abut the second sat I, theyll just take ur best scores from each test giving u 2300, ur totally in good hands</p>

<p>I fully agree with jtwizzle...your scores, as they are alone and together are great. The drop in CR and WR, for all the adcoms know, is due to different curves. Your scores are solid for most, if not all, top schools.</p>
