College applications and lopsided verbal/math test scores and grades

<p>I had a split over 100 points: 800 V, 640 M (I'm just stronger verbally--770's on SAT II Writing and Literature).</p>

<p>I'm at Lehigh now, am transferring into William & Mary next fall. </p>

<p>Also got into Wake Forest, U. Miami, Gettysburg, Franklin & Marshall, among others.</p>

<p>Any way you look at it, an 800 can only be a good thing! Much preferred over a smaller split with both closer to 600-something.</p>

<p>[Thanks again, everyone. I guess the grand prize so far goes to Annelise for biggest difference. I am making a note, Annelise, to tell my daughter to marry someone with a high math score, just as you did. Obviously it was a winning strategy. Yes, I am joking, just in case you couldn't tell.]</p>

<p>Its not really a joke, actually, in the end,both D and S scored v. well, each having at least one 800...and now, one's at Brown, one's at Yale. Who Knew?</p>
