<p>Will the school have access to all of my SAT II's? Say I take Lit, French, and Am. Hist, but do badly on the Lit. I'm only required to have two (in addition to writing). Can I make sure they never see the Lit?</p>
<p>No. All SAT I and SAT II scores are sent to your college.</p>
<p>No, when you want colleeboard to send scores they send everything. :(</p>
<p>yeah...unfortunately (or fortunately..idk) they did away with score choice ~ 2 yrs ago.</p>
<p>The see all your scores, but only the highest count I believe...</p>
<p>what is considered a bad score for SAT 2s... (for Columbia)</p>
<p>they always say that it should be in the 700s</p>
<p>when do they say that?</p>
<p>so does that mean if your sat 2 scores are less than 700 your chances just drop like mad.. and columbia won't want you anymore cus of bad sat 2 scores?</p>
<p>no, not at all.</p>

<li> SAT IIs do count, so don't lid yourself, but they count much less than SAT I, grades, recs and essay(s).</li>
<li> It depends on what you got a low score in. Some SAT IIs are more essential than others.</li>
<li> A low, or somewhat low SAT II score means that you need to compensate for it through other means.</li>
</ol>
<p>i got really low on my lit... and ok/low on my writing and 1c</p>
<p>and what if my school grades are excellent..? does that compensate?
and my sat score is 1350.. (not too good)</p>
<p>silver... I seriously think you and I are in the same boat, lol. Very similar SAT scores.</p>
<p>Hopefully we will be fine... :)</p>
<p>BTW, is English your first language?</p>
<p>well no.. korean is my mother tongue.</p>
<p>but in academic writing and reading im better at english because ive been taught in english most of my life..</p>
<p>Ok, well I am sure you will get some slack for not having english as your first language. Did you have to that the TOFEL?</p>
<p>no i didnt take the TOEFL ... im just going to do it later for immigration purposes..
i didnt take it cus columbia said to me that if i have over 600 on the verbal SAT i dont really need to.
and i got 670 so i thought i dont need to..</p>
<p>OH DAMN IT 690 in physics... which is 61% why???? just out of the 700 range</p>
