Is my SAT score too low for the University of Toronto, Canada?

Test Preparation
1

<p>I'm an international student and my education is based on the American high school system.
I'm the top second in my class with a gpa of 4.0! My average is 97.6 %.
I'm a geek in math; We took advanced courses in Precalculus & now Calculus.
However, my SAT scores are disappointing... and this is causing me depression, because I would LOVE studying abroad in a country like the US or Canada, for my dream university is U of T.</p>

<p>I read their admission requirements on many websites & so far I'm confused about how much do they require on the SAT.</p>

<p>The first time I did my SAT was in January 2010;
I scored : 500 math, 500 cr, 600 writing (8 on the essay).</p>

<p>The second time was in May 2010 where I scored 610 math, 620 writing (9 on the essay), and 450 on cr!!!!!!!! I know CR is a mess! I studied so hard & I got so mad just to get above 1800... but nothing goes as planned.</p>

<p>I heard they choose the best score of each section from more than one test, is this true?
Because if it is, I'll end up scoring 1730.
and do a score above 1700 and a gpa of 4.0 meet the admission requirements for U of T?</p>

<p>Why don’t you retake?</p>

<p>GPA 4.0 is good. But I’m sure you know SAT 1700 doesn’t make you a strong applicant.
U of T is a great school, and if the rest of the applicants are really strong, it’s difficult for you to stand out. They’ll probably think your high school is really easy.</p>

<p>for U of T, 1900 isn’t a big prob, but 2000 will be safer.</p>
