<p>Well looking at the numbers, you have "as good a chance as any"</p>

<p>But for some reason I don't see it working, at least the way it's put down atm. Too "laundry-list" like...no super clear and/or unique passion. And *** retaking a 770 Physics?!</p>

3

<p>Wouldn't help if i get 800 physics? Which i am hoping to get</p>

4

<p>no, it wouldn't make a difference</p>

<p>what's student of the year ap chem? o_o</p>

5

<p>I thought the only SAT II Stanford looked at was math IIc.</p>

6

<p>@MrPrez: its just teacher's favorite.. for that subject pretty much</p>

<p>@Atis: Im pretty sure thats not true.. right?</p>

7

<p>"However, if you elect to take a math test, we do prefer to see the Math Level 2 test if you feel that your math background has adequately prepared you for this test."</p>

<p>FAQ</a> : Stanford University</p>

<p>Prefer does not mean required. Then again you passed Calc AB as a junior...</p>

8

<p>^ nothing special with that I think....I finished Calc BC as a Sophomore.</p>

<p>Your test scores are fine, don't waste your time retaking physics...</p>

9

<p>if you're retaking physics, you can be seen as obssessed with test-taking mentality. i don't think it's a good idea to retake it =)
770 is already a good good good score! </p>

<p>you must be in either foreign language or science high school .. :-)</p>

<p>Thanks for all your input...</p>

<p>I want to hear some chances.. Please?</p>

<p>Very good chance. Try and get the SAT score up just a teeny bit. Over 2200 would be very nice. 1500+ for MT/CR would be ideal.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
