<p>(If it's relevant, I got a 2050 on the SAT but I just took the ACT although I wont get those scores back in time to send them to Stanford).</p>
<p>Basically, I want to major in applied math, I indicated this in my application. I'm good at math, (I had the highest grade in a top Math magnet school in the U.S. I only went there for 9th and 10th grade, I moved back to Mexico after that. I also got a 5 on the AP Calculus AB but I don't know if this will make up for my SAT math 2 score).
Should I send in these scores (including Biology M) or will they hurt my application? I'm applying as an international and I know that Stanford doesn't require subject tests but they recommend we take them.
Oh, I'm applying REA.
Thank you.</p>
<p>except for not being international, we are in a similar situation. My SAT I and subject
test scores were lower than yours. I do think it will hurt the application, but since they ‘require’ you to report all test scores that you have taken, I sent them anyway. My ACT was
good, though, so I am hoping it can offset the SATs and my GPA is good.
Make sure and add Stanford now to your ACT account so it will send as soon as possible. It might get there before they actually start reviewing the apps.</p>
<p>They only require you to send in all SAT and ACT scores, not Subject Test scores. I was in a pretty similar situation with my Chemistry score and decided against sending it.</p>
<p>I would avoid sending that 690. While it is an OK score, it may be a bit low for an intended math major. Stanford doesn’t require that you send in your SAT2 scores so you should be fine there. Your 5 on Calc AB tells Stanford that you are a good math student, you don’t want to jeopardize that.
Send in the bio though, since it’s not related to your major and is a pretty good score it should help you.
The 2050 isn’t bad either.</p>
<p>Those scores won’t hurt your application. If you get rejected, it won’t be because of them. BTW, I have several classmates who were admitted without submitting SAT 2 scores.</p>
