<p>I don’t know the answer to this question, so I will pose it to the CC community. CC posters are focused on test scores, but scores need to be interpreted in context. I have no doubt that the OP is more capable than his SAT scores reflect. From his command of English on his post, I suspect that the reason for his low scores is language more than achievement.
Because of this, I am concerned about his achievement in college once he gets there, because any college that admits him will have general ed requirements. I am concerned that a college might be willing to admit him, not knowing his scores- if he doesn’t send them, but that doesn’t help with the language issue. I’m not familiar with all the colleges listed, but I am familiar with the general education English writing requirements at college, and the other general ed classes that require reading and writing, and they require better proficiency in English than the OP has demonstrated.
I don’t think it serves the OP to get into college, struggle, underachieve and possibly risk not passing his classes. If he is a bright student, as I suspect, he is more capable than that. Although his parents would like him to start college, surely they would also want him to succeed there.
My suggestion- if this is possible and I do not know what the options are- is for him to do some sort of gap/English intensive year, repeat the SAT after completion and then apply. I think his chances of acceptance- and success at college- would be much improved.
I am curious to know what options are out there.</p>
