Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hey i was just wondering what everyone thinks.. I know the SAT score is low!! Also my high school (Salem High School, Salem,VA is in the top 5 for best education in VA)</p>

<p>I got Deffered into the Regular App pool from VT this year. They wanted to see another SAT score and my mid year grades.</p>

<p>I had an 3.52 GPA and 910 SAT score (480 in math, 410 in english)- i know its low. That's what i had when they deferred me.</p>

<p>Now, I have a 3.68 GPA and a 990 SAT score (low i know, but improved 80 points.. Math is now 520 and English is 470. Everything has improved ever since they deferred me. My semester grades for senior year are All A's, and the GPA for that is 4.5, I am in tough courses, IB spanish, IB math, College Prep English, College Govt.</p>

<p>So, do you think i have a chance since I have pretty much been perfect for the semester and I raised my SATs (even though they are low)?</p>

<p>I am first generation by the way.</p>

<p>I applied for Poltical Science

<p>SAT’s are really low for VT. But your GPA is good. First gen will definitely be an advantage so they might give you a chance.
BTW you should post on the VT board.</p>

<p>VT mid 50s range…</p>

<p>SAT Critical Reading: 540 - 630<br>
SAT Math: 570 - 670<br>
SAT Writing: 530 - 630 </p>

<p>You’re still in the bottom quartile…not a good place to be. Did you send teacher recs? Will they let you send another? Is there anything your GC can send/do to “plead your case” (so to speak)?</p>
