<p>I would like to apply to Brown or Dartmouth ED, but my SAT scores are only 2130. I will retake in Nov., and i expect to get at least 2250. So, should i wait to retake the SAT and apply regular decision or should I apply ED with my current SAT scores? Moreover, if i get deferred, can I update my SAT scores after I take them so i have a better score for regular decision? My breakdown:
770 v
710m
650w</p>
<p>Help please</p>
<p>why wait til november when you could do it in october?</p>
<p>Im taking SAT II's in October...I'm an idiot and haven't taken them yet :/</p>
<p>sorry, can't help ya.</p>
<p>a 2130 is fine... don't stress urself out</p>
<p>spend the time concentrating on ECs and your essay (it will take you FOREVER and you will go through about 80 drafts, no exaggeration) - dont waste your time and stress out on only one component (and not even the most important one at that) of your application</p>
<p>lol ONLY 2130</p>
<p>2130 really isn't too bad. Eighty drafts of an essay?? I just wrote it really quickly and then changed a couple of things. It took a day. It sounds better that way; it will sound more genuine, which is what adcoms want.</p>
<p>we're in the same boat. i'm taking sat's again in nov. but for now, i've been spending 4 hrs on my essay each day, for 6 days already.</p>
<p>listen to mattyb</p>
<p>damn, youll never get into Brown with a 2130, thats impossible!
jk, stop stressing...If you have the grades, the essays, good recs, special EC's I assure you, youll get in. Everyone has the SAT scores you know? I mean they arent going to say well he has a 2100 but the other guy has a 2250 so lets accept the 2250 guy. frankly, I think it all comes down to ECs and essays. Good luck lol.</p>
<p>amen ^^ =)</p>
<p>yeah, ONLY 2130? alright, is this some sort of CC Sydrome (like I personally call it?) LOL JK OP 2130 is such a good grade. Just don't streess out too much. I know brown applicants, many of them have 2200+. you're close to 2200 and that's marvelous. Work on your essays, they're importnat! GLUCK!</p>
