<p>Is there anbody else out there besides me who was a little disappointed in their ACT Composite, and is now waiting for those SAT scores next Thursday? Come onnnnnnn........BIG MONEY, BIG MONEY, BIG MONEY!! lolz </p>
<p>a 2350+ would be nice :)</p>
<p>all you need is a 33 ACT // 2200 SAT (preferably 1500 M + CR or around that score)</p>
<p>once you pass that, it doesn't really matter what score you have.. now it's up to yuor essays, recs, EC's, etc...</p>
<p>I disagree partly with Peytoncline. There's a large difference between a 2200, a 2300, and a 2400. Each one says a very different thing. Of course, those SAT scores will, by no means, be the most important thing on your app (unless you get the perfect score). </p>
<p>Once you have a 2200 though, improvement is very much dependent on practice and luck. Diminishing returns set in. So Peytoncline is right in suggestion that after you hit a 2200, your focus should primarily rest on your essays, recs, ECs and so on. However, there is no such thing as a stat that is 'enough'. Higher is always has been better, and always will be.</p>
<p>omg it's NEXT thursday!?????? Wow. This month is speeding by faster than usain bolt!
and haha yes, I am right beside you chanting BIG MONEY!</p>
<p>sad truth i have exactly a 33/2200 on the ACT/SAT</p>
<p>June Scores: 34 ACT, 2100 SAT</p>
<p>October ACT: 34 (ehh)</p>
<p>Hopefully my Nov. SAT will break into the 2250+ range.. then I'll be officially done with standardized testing of all kinds....</p>
<p>what srrinath is right... the higher the better, always, but once you hit that spot, more focus elsewhere in your app (ECs, rec, etc..) is more important</p>
<p>but higher is better, true</p>
