<p>800 math
800 writing
690 critical reading.....</p>
<p>thoughts? fml? no time to retake, and took it enough anyway</p>
<p>composite is good. however, getting over 700 in each section is pretty ideal</p>
<p>yeah if they only saw the composite you would be golden. a 690 isn’t bad, but its at the very lowest point of their spectrum i think. so it could really go either way.</p>
<p>btw, is that the best you’ve done in CR? because you could combine two of the test dates to make it look better.</p>
<p>or, you could take the act really quick and see if you do better on the reading there.</p>
<p>yes, that is the best i’ve done on critical reading. i’m not sure why i can’t seem to do better, but so it goes. </p>
<p>i took the act with a 34 composite (35 if you include the writing portion) and i got a 33 on reading there, which is better.</p>
<p>and 740 on SAT II lit. So i don’t know where my strange CR section is coming from…</p>
<p>i assume one score like this won’t make or break? certainly not make…</p>
<p>I actually wouldn’t worry too much about that. You have a 2290, as long as the rest of your app is good, you’re fine. 25% of the admitted applicants will have a CR score of around 690 or lower.</p>
<p>Well, it depends. How many diseases have you cured?</p>
<p>i have a 2290 =] high five!</p>
<p>No isn’t composite only M + CR? So that would be 1490. That’s pretty good.</p>
<p>You’re total score is pretty awesome though, I don’t think you should worry about it.</p>
<p>how many diseases have i cured? my friend, it is indeed possible to be an incredibly interesting person and strong fit to a school without having cured a disease or the like. </p>
<p>thank you all for the advice</p>
<p>so if you show the lit and you send the act you’ll be absolutely fine. you have great scores!! </p>
<p>but, despite all this being great, that it sooo weird!! I can’t believe you did so well on the SAT II lit, which is just a hard version of the CR, and not on the normal CR… weird.</p>
<p>incredibly so!!! ah well
que sera sera :)</p>

<p>I’m guessing this has been posted before but I just stumbled onto it. Pretty interesting.</p>
<p>About what everyone says…750 ish across the board will put you in the middle 50%. Much lower and I’m sure you need to be an athlete or similar.</p>
<p>I think all depends on the context of your school or region because the people from my school who have been accepted did not have any hooks and relatively mediocre scores. I know that on CC if you don’t have a 2300 + most people will say you need to retake it, but at my school people with 2100’s have gotten into Stanford, Yale, and Harvard hookless. I think because at my school getting a 2300+ is like a miracle since most people can’t even get over 2000.</p>
<p>^i thought it didn’t matter about your school’s context?? :-/</p>
<p>i love how i’m smack dab in the middle for everything, but 90th percentile on writing =]</p>
