Imbalanced SAT scores hurt chances???

<p>Hey I have taken the SAT twice and my highest scores were a 640 (M) and a 760 (V) is the 120 pt. difference going to cause problems in admissions? Should I be worried they'll think I'm not well rounded? I'm satisfied with the 1400 overall but the breakdown isn't quite as impressive. What do you guys think?</p>

<p>please help!</p>

<p>No, that's not a great idea.</p>

<p>what are you talking about</p>

<p>i'm with you.... 800m 670v....let's hope for the best</p>

<p>Yeah, weird, my friend is also in the same situation. He got a 1410 with 760V and 650M... I mean, that's a 110 point difference, but then again, he isn't applying to any mathematics/science program. I think it matters to what program you apply. I mean, with 640M I doubt you stand much of a chance at top Engineering schools, ya know? Like, I'm screwed because I'm applying to Math and Econ majors because I got a 1410 with 690M and 720V, but i feel that it'll be all right. I mean, we all can't be perfect. After all, it's just one test.</p>

<p>I'm in the same boat. (Same math as you, 790 verbal) Clearly I'm not going to be a math major, but I do worry colleges might prefer someone else with a 1400-ish score, but with 700 or so on each section. Not much I can do about it now, though, seeing as I'm just hopeless at math.</p>

<p>I also have a 120 pt difference, my math being higher. m710 v590. Its weird though because I got a 4 on the AP Language and Comp. exam, and my teachers oftern use my essays as examples for the class. SAT score are sooo annoying!</p>

<p>As long as your lower score isn't what you're majoring in, who cares?</p>
