<p>If you could:
1) acess my chances-please
2) i took the SAT 3 times, my current 1440 im getting hand scored ( i made a lot of erasing marks on the October test). If november goes as well as i plan it to, i was thinking of taking the SAT again for a fourth time, i know i can improve by 50 or so points.</p>

<p>Bump Bump Bump</p>

<p>Anyone? Please?</p>

<p>don't bother taking the sats so many times. colleges will see that you've taken them 4 times and the 50 pnts (at least for me) don't seem worth it. They'll think you're simply pushing the grade.</p>

<p>anyone else? any comments on admissions? Please?</p>

<p>Columbia and Upenn will be reaches. The reast are within range - matches.</p>

<p>thanks, i appreciate your comment</p>
