<p>Your SAT score would make Northeaster a reach. </p>

<p>Yes, I understand that. On the other hand, do you think my activities and such surpass the criteria?</p>

<p>I think you have an OK chance, but you should definitely retake the SAT. My college counselor told me that Northeastern puts a lot of emphasis on test scores, so getting that SAT up will definitely be of great help to you. I think your extra curriculars are good, though, but I’m not sure how much that will help you. </p>

<p>I’ve chanced everybody back that has wanted it… keep them coming and I’ll keep chancing!</p>

<p>You won’t get in with that SAT score. Northeastern is obsessed with test scores. They are overly concerned with raising their USNW ranking and have recognized they need to do everything in their power to increase their test scores to improve their rankings. </p>

<p>If you did get in, they would probably make you do your freshman first semester abroad so they would not have to count your scores (since you would not be on campus).</p>

<p>Okay thanks but SAT scores aren’t
The most important thing in the world. But I do know that my scores are low. </p>
