<p>My SAT scores at this point in time are Math 650, writing 670, and CR 740.
My subject tests are Lit: 680 and World history: 710.</p>
<p>Are these good, or should I retake them?</p>
<p>I'm also looking at GWU, Davidson and Princeton, but I'm applying ED to Swarthmore. </p>
<p>Any thoughts?</p>
<p>definitely retake</p>
<p>more info, please?</p>
<p>your math and writing are at the bottom of the range i think. just go to the collegeboard website and look at the ranges. if you are in the range you have a chance. the higher you are the higher your chances.
simple as that</p>
<p>Your scores seem low for Swarthmoe and Princeton. Numbers aside, admission to schools at that level is very iffy. A lot depends on other factors, from grades to activities to socioeconomic issues. Your list seems pretty varied--make sure you have really thought through your preferences and have a list of schools that appeal to you, not just schools that are at different levels of admissibility.</p>
<p>remember your SAT is not the only criteria for admission</p>
<p>I think it is important to remember that good SAT scores rarely get you in to a school, but scores lower than a school thinks you "should" have based on your other credentials and socioeconomic background can be something of a barrier unless there are really strong pluses to balance the scores out. It is all very well to talk about holistic admission policies but it's still really important to find schools that you like and where your numbers, including SAT scores, are solidly in the upper ranges for admission.</p>
<p>i would try to get the math up if you think you can, how many times have you taken it? It seems to me its always worth one last shot if you don't think your scores can dip too much. chance me back!</p>
