<p>Hi~
Your GPA, and course rigor is impressive…however…your SAT score doesn’t seem to match what I would expect…don’t know the specifics of how your SAT broke down. AS an FYI-NU’s SAT CR:670-750, and M: 690-780.
My guess…a high reach.</p>

3

<p>I am inclined to agree with APOL.
What were the SAT scores on just the M and CR?</p>

4

<p>i am trying but since english is my second language i cannot get anything higher than 590 on cr and english…i suffer there…but why is it that colleges look at SAT scores when APs are way harder and they actually show how a person can grasp information that is way above 91% of high schoolers and how hard one can work</p>

5

<p>what is your ap english score? I guess they use SAT score for a reason.</p>
