Scoring Lower on an SAT Test

<p>Penn's policy is on Penn's website.</p>

<p>I knew they superscored, but I'd been worried they'd look down on my 90 point math drop, even if it were compromised with a 90 point reading increase</p>

<p>I took the sat in june, and once again in october, primarily in order to omprove my score in the math section
My CR and W went up 50 each, and my math went down 10. I know its not that much, however, my math was significantly lower than my others, and this only makes things worse. Im a little dissapointed, yet at the same time am extremely happy my other scores went up so much.. but many ppl seem to be having a similar dilemma regarding the math section.</p>

<p>These posts sent me an eerie feeling about the SAT Math.</p>

<p>I went down in math too by like 70 points, but who cares, most schools superscore it, and if they dont, well then don't accept me, I know I'm a smart person.</p>

<p>You guys need to stop letting some board of directors grading a piece of paper govern your life. You have a 2160 and a superscore of a 2220, that puts you in like the 95th-96th percentile, stop whining. You are still almost just as competitive, because honestly when you get to the 700-750+ the scores stop mattering as much when you are competing with people with the same scores.</p>

<p>Now go play kickball or something, stop wasting your time here.</p>
