<p>your sat's are low. so its def a reach but other than that you've got an okay shot</p>

3

<p>Would you suggest to not send my SAT I's and just send my SAT II's?</p>

4

<p>Is Bates truly SAT/ACT optional? There seems to be so much discussion here about submitting scores. If a student does not submit scores, will it hurt their chances?</p>

5

<p>bates is most certainly SAT/ACT optional...i would say that the biggest issue would be that Bates is not need-blind...</p>

<p>you have a definite shot if you take out your test scores and, if Bates really wants you here, they will pay the money to get you here!</p>

<p>good luck!</p>
