<p>Is a 2300 SAT and 3.6 GPA equivalent to a 2100 SAT and a 3.8 GPA?</p>
<p>How much GPA would 200 SAT points make up for?</p>
<p>However much the college weights it.</p>
<p>Like flipper says: beauty will be in the eye of the beholder. It's anyone's guess. Best of luck to you.</p>
<p>Ouch so I guess there's no real answer huh?</p>
<p>Bingo: no slide rule conversion chart posted on the cubicles of admissions officers. But congrats on a great score nonetheless</p>
<p>some colleges love to see a 2300 (Princeton, for example), but other colleges love to see a high gpa and would rather have that than a 2300. Together, however, it is still a nice combination.</p>
<p>Some state universities do have a sliding scale conversion chart, but T26E4 is correct that highly selective private universities don't reveal the secret sauce that they use in the admission process. Apply where you'd like to attend, definitely always apply to a safety college you would like to attend, and see what happens.</p>
<p>SAT scores don't always "make up for" lower academic performance. a lot of times, colleges look at a high SAT and low GPA and conclude that the student is intelligent, but doesn't put in the effort. if they perceive you as lazy or uninterested in your academics, it wlil hurt you.</p>
<p>GPA are usually always weighed more heavily than SAT</p>
<p>Depends on the school.</p>
<p>Tokenadult got it right. Many state U's, such as the UCs have formulas where a high score can compensate for a lower GPA. At highly selective private schools it really does not.</p>
