<p>i am wondering can a really good performance on three SAT II subject tests (2300+ total) help overcome a bad performance on the SAT I (2000 total)?</p>

<p>thanks.</p>

<p>It sure will help.</p>

<p>yeah, SATs don't count for much in college admissions. I think once you get past like 2100-2200 it's all the same.
I think if you are rich and go to a private school and live in a nice area the standards are higher though</p>

<p>no, well... think about it this way: it's probably easier to study for SATIIs rather than the SATI.... and they're looked at slightly differently. Of course a slightly weaker SATI won't break your admissions; you're looked at holistically, and it's great that you have strong SATIIs... just keep in mind that there are other people out there with perfect SATI and IIs. damn superhumans. </p>

<p>good luck!!</p>
