Is 2210 too LOW to apply? or have a chance?

<p>The breakdown is pretty nice however: Math-740 Reading-750 Writing-720 Essay-10</p>

<p>I am probably going into engineering so that must kinda suck (especially the math)</p>

<p>btw, this was my 2nd attempt..I guess im just not a gifted test taker like those 2250/2300+ ppl</p>

<p>and oh yeah...IM ASIAN </p>

<p>FML</p>

<p>You aren’t gonna retry to get that 740 math up higher? It’s pretty easy to boost your math score if you just practice with prior exams and go over the basics.</p>

<p>“We want to discourage students from taking the SAT more than once or twice and believe that programs like Score Choice encourage applicants with resources to take the SAT excessively to improve their scores,” the [Stanford] admissions director said.</p>

<p>Whole article is here: [Stanford</a> Rejects SAT Score Choice - The Paper Trail (usnews.com)](<a href=“http://www.usnews.com/blogs/paper-trail/2009/01/07/stanford-rejects-sat-score-choice.html]Stanford”>http://www.usnews.com/blogs/paper-trail/2009/01/07/stanford-rejects-sat-score-choice.html)</p>

<p>So i dont really want to take it more than twice. Im taking the ACT instead, sounds good?</p>

<p>you should definitely try both exams at least once, just in case you end up doing better on the act than the sat (you can compare the scores between the two tests by just googling sat vs. act scores)</p>

<p>that sat score is considered pretty average at Stanford but it really depends on the rest of your application</p>

<p>I got in with a 2200 (700 reading, 770 math, 730 writing). Don’t worry about it. </p>

<p>I’m also a white, middle-class, first generation to go to college male, if that means anything.</p>

<p>My roommate next year took it 3 times and he obviously got in. I think your scores are splendid if you have an otherwise compelling application, but if you feel like they don’t accurately portray your potential take them again.</p>

<p>Your scores fall into the middle 50% of Stanford’s accepted body, why would you think you think that your SAT are too low?</p>

<p>Seriously…shut up :&lt;/p>

<p>^
LOL. Agreed.</p>

<p>gotta stop with this “asian. ■■■.”</p>

<p>i’m asian and got in with 2220 (no hook)</p>

<p>im asian, got in with a 2010</p>

<p>wots ■■■???</p>

<p>f#@k my life</p>

<p>oh and in with a 2160</p>

<p>Soo, rather than submitting all of one’s SAT scores could one just submit one’s ACT scores? Since apparently they frown upon taking the SAT multiple times.</p>
