<p>Heyla.</p>

<p>So I just got back my December 2 SAT2 scores, and they weren't so nice. Literature 780, which was all well and good, but Latin 670.</p>

<p>A bit of context - my intended field of study is Linguistics, possibly with English/creative writing. My Latin and English courses fit this declaration: As in all of them for all 4 years, nothing but honors and AP classes, Latin Club, side job grading Latin tests, Latin tutor, National Latin Honor Society, you get the idea. And generally I test pretty well (800 verbal, 730 math, 710 writing) so this was . . . a bit of an unpleasant surprise. I didn't think I'd done that well, there was a lot of stuff I hadn't reviewed in a while on the test, but I was hoping for better than a 670.</p>

<p>I'm really nervous right now, because I know that score doesn't at all go with my whole presentation of Latin excellence (ha). The only place it's being sent to is Barnard. Please help: how much do you think it'll screw me over?</p>

<p>Thankya much.</p>

<p>You're fine. Would you reject someone because they had one SAT II score of 670? If you're rejected, it'll be because of more than that.</p>
