<p>So I'm a student athlete hopefully to be accepted to the Notre Dame Class of '17! My GPA is 4.0 and I will graduate with 38 credits. My lowest percentage score of a highschool class from 9th-12th grade was 97%. My SAT's are horrible though (had to take it with a week notice and didn't study.) And I'm not a good time tester. At all. Let alone a test with subjects and format I'm not familiar with. How bad do SAt hurt student athletes though? I heard SATs don't matter as much as GPA and how good you are at your sport. So if you in the top 12 in the nation in your sport, how good is your chance? I also applied to Penn State. Which should I count on more? My grandmother however went to Notre Dame. Does legacy status help?Thanks!</p>
<p>What’s your sport? Certain sports carry more admissions clout than others.</p>
