<p>How many applications were there this year? Also i didnt do so well on my SAT Math section, so i took the math SAT II IC to show that i am not that bad at math. Is this a good way to show I am good at math? also i am in AP Calc with a 95 average..</p>
<p>I think Dean J posted in her blog that there were about 18,000 (+2000 transfers).
As for your SAT, don't sweat it. That's the advantages of taking AP classes and SAT IIs =) If it's above 600, definently dont worry about it.</p>
<p>dododo~
i think a lot will have to do with whether you're an in-stater or not. requirements are tough enough for Virginians, and almost impossible("public ivy" status)for those out-of-state. GOOD LUCK...AN AWESOME SCHOOL!!!</p>
<p>I got a 560 on the US history SAT2...but a 690 on Math Ic and a 700 on lit. I dont believe SATII scores are heavily weighted. In fact, people who did ED didnt even need them until after they were accepted so...</p>
<p>they dont even consider SAT II unless your scores place you out of a class. also, if you got a 730 or above on the writing section, you place out of some freshman english class!! yay!</p>
<p>No ... take math IIC, especially if you're in AP Calculus. And UVa requires 2 SAT IIs for freshman admissions, so yeah, they must be significant.</p>
<p>Just fyi, they're not recommended, just strongly suggested.</p>
<p>i got into UVa and didn't report any SAT IIs. i reported ACT and they were fine with it.</p>
<p>Oh, a rep of UVa told me they were required at a college fair, maybe he misread recommended for required..thx though.</p>
<p>i think they are still required. and even if they say recommended, at a school like UVA, you take them!</p>
<p>I just realized my previous post makes no sense...they arn't required, just strongly suggested</p>
<p>SATIIs are expensive and time consuming and not all schools offer them frequently. UVa probably doesn't require them because their aim is to attract lower-income/minority students, and these students will often be in places where the SATII is offered one or two weekends in a school year, and that same weekend may be consumed by the SAT/ACT/other personal matters. Its too tough for UVa to require such a specialized test, but since there's an opportunity for all to take them, they would still like to see them</p>
