Asian with a low math score...

<p>Hey guys, been a while since I posted. I saw in another thread that as an Asian person, it is a duty to get a 99% on math. I wasn't even close to such a score, my percentile being a 79. Luckily my reading comprehension score brought me up to a 91%, but still...</p>

<p>I'm currently a freshman taking A-Maths and E-Maths in the IB system, where I do very well (top of my class) and have A+ in both classes. I suppose the reason for my less than impressive score was that I generally have difficulty solving some logic problems, and I occasionally suffer under time constrain. I do infact happen to be Asian and have a good record of good math exams and scores in the past, will this slightly lower math score hurt me?</p>

<p>Maybe, but your grades are probably more important than SSAT scores. Relax! Your grades in school are great, and I'm sure they'll see you just have a problem with standardized tests.</p>
