<p>I am applying to California's mechanical engineering (OOS), and i was wondering how much a low SAT II physics score would affect me.</p>
<p>Suppose I have around a 4.0 UW GPA and around a 2250 SAT Score.
Assuming good essays/ECs, How much would say a 650 on the SAT II physics hurt my chances for engineering?
thanks.</p>
<p>Are you asking because you know your SAT II score, or you are speculating of what it might turn out to be?</p>
<p>I think your chances will be hurt a lot especially if you're trying to get into CoE.
Dunno if L&S offers something like it.</p>
<p>Someone from the AdCom came to our UC Essay workshop at school and she said that more than 50% of the apps they get have 750+</p>
<p>@xu234: Think about it, 10-15 wrong on the SAT II Physics is STILL ~800, so getting a 650 on it says something already, doesn't it? If you're going into engineering, most likely you're going to be taking Physics 7A, which is a LOT harder than a silly SAT Subject test.</p>
