<p>Hi all, im an international student applying to the US and aiming for the ivies. I just got 2150 (780V/650V/720W) in my SAT I, do you guys think this requires 'retakement' and where can i be aiming for with this scores. I know other factors are involved in application but let's i fulfil all other requirements</p>
<p>bumpety bump</p>
<p>im really sorry to be off-topic, and also really no offense to you but, how did you get a 720 W? also is that a 780 V or M</p>
<p>whoops that should be 780M/ 650V / 720W
what do you mean how did i get 720 W??</p>
<p>Where are you coming from?</p>
<p>england- yes i speak english</p>
<p>In that case, I think you should retake the SAT I one more time, as it is hard for internationals to gain admission to top colleges. You do not have to; you have a great score. Furthermore, focus on the other parts of the application such as essays and such. </p>
<p>Do note that the ability to pay is highly considered in the admissions process. If you can pay, the more likely you are to be admitted.</p>
<p>Thanks, and yes i understand about the ability to pay. Im hoping being an ethnic minority (black african) will stand in my favor. which colleges can i be aiming for with the aforementioned score</p>
<p>Yes. It will stand in your favor as being a URM and an international. I think you can have the mix of the standard reach, match and safety schools.</p>
<p>Only you know which colleges for which you should be aiming. If your SAT IIs, recs, essays, academic record are fine, I believe you can apply to the HYPs, other top 25 schools such as Northwestern and UMich, and safeties such as Tulane, etc.</p>
