<p>your scores are most likely good enough to get into penn state (middle 50% verbal scores: 530-630, math: 560-670). I would definitely consider applying. it's actually easy to get a double math/astro major at psu, in fact you could probably triple physics/math/astro without much of a problem. I know an undergrad now who's tripling, and he's doing well. Plus, if you decide to switch majors, the credits you earn in the first 2 years of the normal astro program are the basic courses for science and engineering, so you won't have to spend too much time catching up.</p>
<p>as for other astro-related jobs, there are observatory ones, and I'm sure nasa and esa have many. really, any way you a. research or b. teach and research.</p>
