<p>your rank and gpa are good, its the ACT/SAT dragging you down. if you applied oct. 3rd im pretty sure that EA am i right? if you still havent heard yet that just means that they want to compare you to the rest of the people who applied reg. decision. I applied EA and got in thanksgiving weekend, and my friend who is in the same situation as you got in like the 2nd or 3rd week of december. You should be able to get in, and if you took the SAT again and did better (1600+) you should be fine. good luck!</p>
<p>yeah i did EA and i would have took the SAT but i didnt think i would and the test unfortunately was today. would it be helpful if i took it again or too late?</p>
<p>no its too late now, december is pretty much your last shot. a 1530 will drag you down in the eyes of the admissions office, but since your GPA and rank are high, it shouldnt be bad enough for them to reject you. you should hear soon enough</p>
<p>thanks. hopefully i get accepted!</p>
<p>There is an alternative, but only if you are willing to take advantage of the opportunity. Next saturday, the ACT is being offered and i highly recommend you to take it. Without doubt, your grades are great, but with a 25+ on the ACT, you most likely ensure your acceptance at rutgers rather than leaving it with chance like it is now with you SAT score. I just applied a few days go to RSB. I hope we both get accepted! Best of luck!</p>
<p>will it be any helpful because i figured they would already review my app since i applied oct 3</p>
