<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I'm new here... I will be a senior this year. I have already taken SAT once and will take it again in Oct 2007. I live in NJ and on my 1st SAT I got a 1800.
My accumulated GPA so far is around 3.5. I know I have another chance to improve my SAT score, but do you think I can get into Rutgers with an 1800 and 3.5 GPA?</p>

<p>One more thing - my school has sent me a transcript at the end of this school year (2006-2007). It has weighted and unweighted GPA. But the unweighted is what counts right? colleges look at the unweighted GPA right?</p>

<p>Critical reading+ Math score - 1180
Critical reading+Math+Writing - 1800
Unweighted GPA - 3.542
Weighted GPA - 3.979</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>You're in. Either GPA is adequate.</p>

3

<p>you should be fine</p>

4

<p>just to be safe.. get your sat up if you really want</p>

5

<p>Keep it up and you should be fine.</p>

<p>Yeah, I'll try to increase the SAT score, but I just wanted to be prepared for the worst. Hence I asked if I would get in with the scores and GPA that I have currently... </p>

<p>Also, in case I do worse on the 2nd SAT, would they take objection or would it effect by admission status?</p>

<p>Thanks a lot for the responses. I really appreciate it!</p>

7

<p>I believe they take the highest</p>

<p>oh ok.. thanks!</p>

<p>I forgot to mention to you'll that I'm going to try for either Pre-Med or Biotechnology or some biological science subject. </p>

<p>So you'll I can make it for any of the above?</p>

<p>I mean to ask does one need a particular SAT score to qualify for admission in the majors stated above?</p>

<p>I'm asking this because I'm not aware of how they evaluate an application</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Also, I have taken SAT II Bio - 670</p>

<p>I have taken AP Euro - 5, AP Lang 3, AP Bio - 4. Currently taking AP Stats. Again I'm going to major is some Bio field as stated above.</p>

<p>Is one subject test enough?</p>

<p>hey dont worry about your sat, rutgers really only cares about your gpa and class rank and 3.5 is good enough.</p>
