My Collegeboard Roadmap

Colleges & Universities A-Z Harvard University

<p>Alright so I am a junior who has been dreaming about Harvard for like the last 2 days at least I promise. However, I am a little sure about the number/type/amount of standardized tests I should take. Alright here is my current plan.</p>

<p>October 2005: SAT 1- 2040(630cr, 690m, 720wr)=RETAKE!!!
January 2005: SAT 2- Math 2C and Physics
April 2006: SAT1(hopefully last time)
May 2006: SAT 2-USH/Chem/Lit
June 2006: retake whatever I need to</p>

<p>OK folks, my question is what scores should I be aiming at on these tests to make myself a competitive applicant for Princeton???</p>

<p>Thank you, any help will be appreciated.</p>

<p>you'll need to retake math. it's gonna be 2006 man. haha jk</p>

<p>LOL yea PhoenixRSI, I really f****** up on Math for some reason on the October test, even thouhg it is my strongest subject. I have gotten a 780-800 in Math on every other SAT practice test I have taken.</p>

<p>Wait, Your Asian and you got a 690 on Math? Your such a disgrace to the Asian Race. Jump off a bridge now!</p>

<p>wow why are asians supposedly such genius's at math, im asian, and im terrible at math. well not really, actually im pretty good, but im sure some asians are bad at math. but come to think of it, i havnt seen one in a long time. hmm. anyone see that rick reiley article in sports illustrated?</p>

<p>I all has to do with the Asian school systems, which are far more advanced in areas like Math than schools in the U.S.</p>

<p>I know this might sound weird, but you should be aiming for perfection. Aim for a 2400 and 800's. To be a competitive applicant you will have to have at least a 2100 and in the 700's. Princeton and Harvard are both in the top ten universities in the world...</p>

<p>I think that I read the Rick Reilly article, but don't remember it. Yes, all asians are inherently good at math. Actually, I'm kind of bad for an asian at math. I didn't even qualify for AIME.</p>
