<p>please help!</p>

<p>The SAT is your main weakness; if your math score was, say, 100 points higher, then I could consider that a low match.</p>

4

<p>thanks. Hopefully I can bring it up by a lot.
Does anyone know if they look at writing scores?</p>

5

<p>bump. class rank 114/305</p>

6

<p>bump. I need more opinions. Do I even stand a chance</p>

7

<p>But, as it is now, you might have a chance, but I’d say it is still a match.</p>

<p>And also, why am I so often the one to chance people going to no-name schools?</p>

<p>Your ECs are nice. I agree, get your math score up, and your chances will increase. Looking at the College Board website, it doesn’t appear that UMass looks at writing. At this point, consider it a reach but obtainable if you improve your score. Are you a jr. or a sr.?</p>

<p>I’m a senior. I’m taking the sats again in a month. I know my math score will go up because I messed up in the bubbling on the first test.</p>

<p>need higher sat scores!</p>

12

<p>Hopefully better bubbling-in next time around will result in better than the measly 450 and get that score up. Although I wish you could increase your math score 100 points (and maybe writing by 30-40 points while at it)…</p>

13

<p>thanks guys. I’m definitely going to study more.</p>

<p>I also live in MA and a ton of kids from my school go to The Zoo. Unfortunately you’re gpa and SAT’s are low. They want at least 3.7 with over 1875 on SAT’s. good luck</p>

17

<p>thanks. any more?</p>

18

<p>I retook the sats. I will update when I get the scores in.</p>

<p>I think you should try ACT test . It been reported some people do better on ACT test then SAT. My daughter took ACT test in September and her overall composite score is 28 … which equals about 1860 in SAT . This past may her SAT scored was 1790 which includes the writing . So try ACT test . You might surprise yourself.</p>
