<p>My SAT score is a 2150 but that's because I have a really high writing score while having a not so high reading score;Math is in the low 700s. Does this basically mean that I will be looked at like a kid who got a 1900 but with the same Math+Cr as me?</p>
<p>It really depends on which schools you’re applying to. Generally, most schools will take the CR+M score in higher regard then the composite but the weight they apply to each section will vary wildly. Check the policies of each school you’re applying to. Since you didn’t provide me a CR+M score, I can’t tell you how exactly that will be regarded. Your high writing score will help you a little at most institutions that take it into account, but if you can up your CR score you’ll have a much better chance at elite schools.</p>
<p>my son is the same way except his weak link is his math score. The liberal arts schools seem to like his high writing score from what I can tell so far. He did take it again and we are hoping to get that math up a bit from the 620 he had?</p>
<p>It also can depend on what you want to major in and the school you’re applying to. If you’re going into STEM and applying to a school’s college of Sciences or equivalent, the high math score is what matters the most to many schools. If you want to be a humanities major, that low CR score could hurt you. Vise versa applies as well, a lower math score for a kid with a strong English bend and a prospective English major wouldn’t hurt as much as a kid going into the sciences</p>
