<p>I know people who get into the ivies with 1600s (yes, new test, not old test), but they have stellar extra curriculars and amazing essays, as well as fantastic letters of recommendation and spectacular interviews.</p>
<p>Still, you probably want to retake it. Most ivies look for the 2100-2200 range, but there are exceptions.</p>
<p>so should i retake the test? but the next test date is in october. and i want to apply for the spring session.. so will the test scores reach them in time?</p>
<p>guys, one more thing.
these were my sat 2 scores
physics 770
chem 740
bio 740</p>
<p>total 2250/2400.
i want to go in for BS(biology). so will these scores compensate for my low sat 1 scores?and as far as extracurriculars go , i'm living in india right now. i'm a national level swimmer and won a silver and bronze medal last year. i also got the 1st prize in creative writing in an inter school competition. in my final year exams, my aggregate was 86% and i got a 94(out of 100) in biology.</p>
<p>I think that your SAT scores are a bit too low for ivy league schools. Sure, some students are accepted with lower scores; however, these students comprise a small and extremely lucky group!</p>
<p>What about the following SAT results:
SAT I (2270/2400)
Reading - 760
Writing - 750
Math - 760
SAT II - US History - 770
SAT II - Chemistry - 740
SAT II - French - 770
SAT II - Biology M - 770
SAT II - Math Level 2 - 770</p>
<p>How competitive would these results be considered for Harvard, Princeton, Yale and Penn Engineering schools? Of course, overall chances depend upon grades and ECs as well.</p>
<p>As I said on my last post, go look at your other threads and try to stop showing off. you KNOW they're good so stop asking. About 20 people have already confirmed to you that these are killer scores.</p>
