<p>Hard question. I would have to go with the high SAT score. No matter how many people cry that the SAT is unfair, and not a accurate gauge of ones inteligence/effort/mental abilities the reality is that Standardized testing helps adcoms with evaluating GPAs. </p>
<p>GPA is extermly subjective. One course at one school may be easier then another school not to mention a grade in a class does not show the rigor of the course (Extra credit? Favorism? No/easy tests?)</p>
<p>The reality is, the SAT is somewhat of a IQ test. The questions are all about logic, problem solving, and aptitutude. If your’e a good/avid reader you’ll naturally do well on the CR. If you are a sharp math student who can manipulate equations and problems easily then you’ll get a high MAth SAT. I know few people who were bad at the SAT and were able to bring it up by taking a prep course etc.</p>
