<p>alrrigghttt what if i brought up my sat scores to like 700 math 650CR and 650W?</p>
<p>GPA matters alot, if your GPA is that low, SATs wont get you very far.</p>
<p>gpa is always first</p>
<p>How does a 3.9 and 1700 look?</p>
<p>are you sure? SAT is standardized GPA isn't.. i know they look at them together but i doubt GPA is more important than SATs</p>
<p>r u kiddin me? 3 years of GPA means a lot more than a 3 1/2 hour test</p>
<p>idk it depends on the college.. some high schools can be very easy and have grade inflation while SAT is graded the same for everyone</p>
<p>umich places more emphasis on GPA while ivies place more emphasis on SAT</p>
<p>I disagree. I believe a strong SAT score can offset a weak GPA. I know of people who have been accepted with a low GPA but a high SAT score.</p>
<p>maybe livingston.. but doubtful.</p>
