<p>as far as gpa, sat scores go, what are some ballpark numbers that make you competitive?</p>

<p>You might look at the website for incoming freshman statistics-go from there</p>

<p>3.8, 1460?</p>

<p>You're SAT certainly doesn't have to be 1460, GPA is about right though. I'd say 1400, maybe even 1370-1380 for competitive SAT. That certainly won't get you in, but it won't keep you out.</p>

<p>will a 640m and 3.7 uw gpa hold me up
should i retake</p>

<p>i have a 650 M, which isn't too different. i don't plan to retake though.</p>

<p>It depends on what your CR score is. I mean if you have a 640 M and 600 CR then you probably won't get in, but if you have even like a 640 M and 690-700 CR you got a chance. Test Scores are important, but once you get within a broad range it really comes down to things like rank, gpa, courseload, ecs, interview, and essays. Lol, I guess everything else.</p>

<p>damn, well...with a 1330 (but 2100!) should i even bother? Come on G-town, jump on the SATs-are-getting-more-meaningless bandwagon.</p>

<p>Unfortunately Gtown doesn't look at your writing score, so 770 on Writing won't count for them.</p>

<p>770M, 740CR, 3.5GPA (10 APs counting senior year, private school)..</p>

<p>760 Math II and 750 Lit. </p>

<p>Is that enough? I know my GPA is way low.</p>

<p>ok i had a 1440 without writing and a 4.41 weighted gpa
my counselor said georgetown might be too hard for me and i went O.o Huh?!?!</p>

<p>but i think she's clueless so dont' feel bad people!!</p>

<p>however i do have a question about the foreign service school
i know its VERY VERY COMPETITIVE (though not sure how much) and i was wondering if my score of 1510 was "good enough"
i know they dont count writing. do i even have any kind of chance of getting in?</p>

<p>thanks~~</p>

<p>i also am applying for the sfs...my sats are lower, but what about act... does anyone have a number for that?</p>

<p>I only have a 3.4-3.5 UW GPA, but I'm in the top 10% of my class because all my classes were very hard/challenging, and many in areas that I might not have excelled in, but interested me nonetheless. However, I have a 1570 SAT, pretty good ECS and godly volunteer stuff. Would all my other stuff kind of balance out my weak UW GPA and give me a shot to Georgetown?</p>

<p>edit: I'm applying to MSB</p>

<p>Ender's game a 1510 would probably beat the average at SFS. It's hard to get into, but not impossible. Rank/GPA plays a HUGE part at Georgetown though. What's your rank?</p>

<p>Andrew Wiggin (I LOVE that book!): When I was taking my tour at gtown, i overheard the receptionist say that the average was a 1380, so I am sure that a 1510 is very, very good. Of course, there is no sat score that makes you a sure-fire acceptance candidate, not even a 1600 (I know that gtown has rejected ppl with scores of 1600), but having a 1510 NEVER hurt anybody.</p>

<p>i reported that im in the top 10% and my GPA is out of 99... (its like a 101 weighted). without a definite class rank, will they still look favorably at taht?</p>
