1170 sat score, awaiting test scores from dec 5. Should I go test optional? The only issue is that I have a low gpa (3.44) (2.125 9th, 3.75 10th, 3.9 11th, projected 4.0 12th) 13 honors, 9 aps by the end of senior year. I’m aiming for nyu tisch for film. Should I apply test-optional or do I need my sat score to back up my gpa?
Hi. I think your 13 honor classes and 9 app back up your low gpa. If I were you, I would not send in SAT score. Make a strong personal essay. I also hope you have strong ec.
