<p>Do you know anybody who got into top college with extremely low scores?</p>
<p>yes, but those are people whose fathers have donated millions of dollars to the colleges,
or won an olympic gold metal</p>
<p>Rice - SAT2 Chem 520</p>
<p>Yes..I know that but that Yale guy was not..I don't know other person but yale guy graduated my school and was not that rich nor olympiad medalist..Though his ECs and Essay was great..So I wonder anybody like yale guy there..</p>
<p>yep..</p>
<p>they're called Division I athletes</p>
<p>SAT2 520 and rice? That's cool</p>
<p>Theres always a group of those low lows, as mentioned above, every school NEEDS athletes.</p>
<p>i heard someone got into columbia last year with a 980</p>
<p>1180 to MIT two years ago.</p>
<p>Hispanic Valedictorian from Aviation High School in NYC--the only high shcool of its kind in the United States. He came out with a special liscense in aviation and a prestigious tool box award from the navy or some military thing lol. He was unique.</p>
<p>Oh and a 1280 White female who got into Princeton. </p>
<p>She was low income living in an affluent NYC suburb. But she's an AMAZING writer who was published several times and who has the voice and talent of an angel. Heavily involved in music and sang at Carnegie Mellon and a Mets game.</p>
<p>Georgetown - 1120-ish (athlete)</p>
<p>I hear it's easy to get into Yale if your dad was president of the US, and knows people on the board of admissions. Bush got a 1206, but I highly doubt you have the same situation as him.</p>
<p>wow... the leader of our country scored a 1206...</p>
<p>the SAT's were differently formatted when he took them though, so its not a proper comparison.</p>
<p>How did he get a 1206? Isn't it only in multiples of ten?</p>
<p>that was before recentering though, i think i heard somewhere that it would be comparable to a 1300-1350 today...not tooo bad</p>
<p>how so would it be a 1300-1350, i dont really know about that...</p>
<p>Because the test was different back then.</p>
<p>i think i heard somewhere that, before recentering, only about 350 kids NATIONWIDE got a 1600. This was because in order to get 800 on CR, you had to have a perfect RAW score. And you would also have to have a perfect RAW score on the math as well. </p>
<p>Until recentering, 1600 truly was a PERFECT score.</p>
<p>The test was recentered in 1995. Roughly, you can add 100 points to the old scores. Also, keep in mind that "back in the day" we did not prep at all for the test. We just showed up and took it!</p>
