<p>I was just wondering how WashU weighs the SAT writing relative to Math and CR. According to this list [url=<a href="http://www.sat-essay.net/sat-scoring-policies.html%5DNew">http://www.sat-essay.net/sat-scoring-policies.html]New</a> SAT Scoring Policies from 374 Top Schools<a href="derived%20from%20Kaplan">/url</a>, it apparently gives it equal weight. Can anyone provide me a valid source to confirm this?</p>
<p>The higher you score, the better. I’m not quite sure they give it equal weight, but it would be a good idea to act like they do when you’re preparing for the SAT. A high score (750-800) won’t make you and a low score (650-700) won’t break you, but they’ll use it as a basis for comparison among students if things are really close.</p>
<p>i’m fairly certain the important thing about SAT writing is thats >750 gets you out of writing 1 for engineers. Not sure about the exact number, though.</p>
<p>So does a 5 on AP Lang or AP Lit. Woot!</p>
<p>Or 36 on reading.</p>
<p>Or…I’ve got nothing.</p>
<p>Or passing the engineering writing test at the beginning of the semester ;-p</p>
<p>(800 ftw)</p>
<p>Or you can be an idiot like me and take the class anyway even though you exempted out from the SAT, ACT and AP tests (really, don’t do this).</p>
