Please help me. Tell me if I can get admitted with this " bad SAT score".

Chance Me / Match Me!

I’m an international student from Albania. 2 months ago I decided to take the SAT. I started working on my own and I gave the SAT.

These are my scores :
CR -530 ( expected) National Percentile 61 %
MATH - 680 ( disappointed, was expecting around 750) National Percentile 90%
WRITING - 520 ( FAILED, I can’t believe it) National Percentile 62 %

Total 1730.
Is it very bad ?

This was my first time that I took the SAT. I’m sure if I take it again I will do better but there’s no options left.

I have a very high GPA and I’m one of the best students in my country ( top 100 selected by our government, especially in science)

What do you think?
Do I have any chances?

Just to clarify, I’m applying in mid-range Universities that do not require 2000+ SAT scores.

Universities I selected:
University of Maine , Orono
Clark University
Colgate University
Jacobs University Bremen

Colgate is not a “mid-range” university, and I believe their average SAT score is just over 2000, so that would be a stretch. Clark is test-optional, so you could choose not to send the scores (though 1730 may be in their range). Not sure about the other two schools.

your scores are low but i don’t know is being an albanian is unique. if it is, you can probably enter schools which people with your scores normally can’t. are you asking for scholarship? if you are, that completely negates any possible advantage of being uniquely albanian.
