<p>Do colleges look more at the score you get, rather than the percentile of that score? Or the other way around...</p>
<p>Does percentile really make that big of a difference?</p>

<p>bump...........</p>
<p>bump, someone please respond. I think that they just pay attention to the score, but then again its only my opinon.</p>
<p>bump. i'd like to know too.</p>
<p>bump as well...i wanna know also!</p>
<p>same.. although ive heard that the score is looked at with much more importance..
meaning a 700 with a 75 percentile is considered better than a 670 with a 85 percentile..</p>
<p>To me it should be the other way around, although it is probably score because most colleges can't see percentile.</p>
<p>ye ilovesoftball i agree wit u..</p>
<p>I think they just look at the score, but have a VERY good idea about the curve (percentile). Example- Math2 800, seen alot of them...Literature 800, something special!</p>
<p>they look at the score
the curve does not vary that much</p>
<p>Not the case. The 88th percentile on the Math2c, for instance, was 800 on the College Board score chart this past year, and about a 710 on the Literature. Fewer than half of 1% get an 800 on the Literature test. Physics and Chemistry scores were inflated on the high end as well, but not nearly as much as the Math2c.</p>
<p>danas makes a point...</p>
<p>And an 700 in Korean is 25th%ile...</p>
<p>danas has a point if we weren't talking about just one test, but college don't see percentile</p>
