<p>haha, out here in the west everyone takes the SAT, and we gotta take SAT 2's since UC's require them. haha, we have no PSAE (i guess thats midwest thing?)</p>
<p>PSAE is mandatory in Illinois. It includes an ACT and I definitely did horrible on it... I was hoping to get that ACT score up to a 34. The second part of the PSAE is tomorrow. Some work keys stuff (basic math/science knowledge).</p>
<p>I am perfectly content with a 33 and think it should be good enough for UIUC. I don't really think getting that extra point will do me that much good but my mom is convinced. I don't want to sit through another 5 hour test.</p>
<p>why devalue yourself going to uiuc when you are clearly capable of IVY LEAGUE or at least northwestern?
btw, that science part today on the psae was harder than the december one</p>
<p>Hahaha. I don't really think I'm Ivy league material. I will be applying to a few reach schools but I've already racked my brain for how I could possibly stand out as an applicant and I have zilch. </p>
<p>And I will aim to get into northwestern for my MBA but not for my undergrad. I talked with a representative of northwestern at College Night and my highschool and she basically told me that going to Northwestern as a business undergrad is NOT the way to go.</p>
