Help!! sat scores for Penn

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Pennsylvania

<p>I've submitted my common app for Penn CAS on Satuday (30th Oct.) However I didn't realize that I had not sent my sat scores until then. So I placed my order to rush my scores and CB said the scores would be sent within two business days ( I suppose that means latest by Tuesday 2nd Nov?) Can I still make it for the ED deadline? coz I really don't want to miss the deadline just because my sat scores will arrive late!> < Anyone has any ideas?</p>

<p>I've got another problem. I'm an international applicant who isn't a native speaker of English and my verbal score for the SAT is extremely low. What's worse is that I took the test twice and I got a lower score for my second attemp! ( I think that is because of the January curve... I got the same number of questions wrong for both tests) My current scores are: 2009Dec M-780 W-750 R-670, 2010Jan M-800, W-710, R-630. I do have a high TOEFL score to sought of compensate (I know it isn't gonna be a big help though) Do you guys think it is necessary for me to retake the SAT in Nov? (but I'm also having major exams at school during Nov) </p>

<p>Thanks for your kind helps!</p>

<p>You will be fine for the deadline. They even accept November SAT for ED which will not be ready for many more weeks. Contact admission office if you want to make sure. For low verbal score, I don’t know for sure but I suspect it will not hurt you as a non-native English speaking person. That is actually a pretty good score for international student.</p>

<p>Thank you! I’m just afraid all SATs taken before Nov must be sent before the deadline although they accept rushed Nov scores. > <</p>

<p>my biggest concern for my verbal score is actually that it went from 670 in December to 630 in the January. Will they put more weight on my latter one which is not even 650?</p>

<p>BTW, does Penn have anything like superscores? I just cannot decide whether to retake in Nov!</p>
