I have a feeling you guys will know this

<p>what schools don't look at writing when they see SAT scores?</p>

<p>Out of-</p>

<p>Cornell
Brown
Northwestern- I'm pretty sure they don't.
Stanford
Harvard (shush it)
Amherst</p>

<p>I’m not sure about every single one of those schools, but I do know that Cornell doesn’t look at writing. Someone from Cornell came to our school a few months ago for an info session and she told us that they do not look at your writing score because Cornell does not feel that the SAT Writing truly reflects someone’s writing ability.</p>

<p>On the other hand, I’m pretty sure Harvard does. (darn it!)</p>

<p>While you guys are answering that, I have a few schools I’d like to know about myself:</p>

<ul>
<li>Williams College</li>
<li>University of Pennsylvania</li>
<li>Princeton</li>
<li>Yale</li>
</ul>

<p>Please and thank you. =]</p>

<p>Concerning application materials:

  1. Look them up on the College Board website. If there are no ranges for the writing section alone, then they don’t look at it. If there are no ranges at all, they may just not report them.
  2. Look them up on the college website.</p>

<p>Yale, Princeton, Harvard, Brown, Northwestern, Stanford, UPenn, Williams College all look at the writing section. Cornell does not.</p>

<p>I don’t know about Amherst. I did a quick search but couldn’t find any consistent information.</p>

<p>Most of these can be confirmed on the College Board website. Others are not reported on it, but are talked about on the college’s website:
Williams College: [Williams</a> College | Admission | How to Prepare for Williams](<a href=“http://www.williams.edu/admission/apply_prepare.php]Williams”>http://www.williams.edu/admission/apply_prepare.php)</p>

<p>Don’t ask about other colleges. You will find what you need faster if you just do your own research. When it is time to apply, you will have to do your research anyway.</p>
