Question

<p>I was wondering aside from GPA, what are the chances of acceptance if you have a not-so-good SAT score, good SAT subjects and 36 ACT score?</p>

<p>well, harvard doesn’t put as much emphasis on the sat I score as much as your sat subject tests, so there’s some hope there. thats a really good act score btw, and it might override your sat score anyway.</p>

<p>^ uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I have qualms with everything you just said Noitaraperp.</p>

<p>Well if that’s your composite ACT (with writing), just submit that. And yes, subject tests are generally considered more heavily than SAT I since subject tests are a better reflection of you as a student since they are curriculum based exams. However, since you have the ACT, you shouldn’t even be worried about your SAT I score since you won’t need to submit it (assuming ACT is with writing)</p>

<p>why? here’s a quote from a new york times article: </p>

</p>

<p>and to tonyt, he has to send his sat I if he is sending his subject tests - the report is one complete thing.</p>

<p>i feel so much better right now</p>

<p>sorry, poor choice of words, by not submitting his sat I scores I mean they won’t even consider it if his ACT is a better score. So yes, he’ll send his sat I score, but they won’t even bother to look at it.</p>

<p>there is no question that the SAT II scores are a better predictor of college success, but that does not mean it is weighed more than SAT I scores in admissions. SAT I is undoubtedly the most important standardized test in admissions, but of course SAT IIs also have a very significant value. SAT I shows your ability to prep for a test and your general overall liberal arts ability. SAT II tests let you excel in your strongest areas - they show more what you’ve learned in school than what you’ve learned on your own.</p>
