<p>Yes, thats also what Ive heard about the lit sat 2. and im taking both tests in the fall. hopefully i can improve. thanks you guys!</p>

22

<p>really? i hope i can improve my sat enough to give me an edge</p>

23

<p>also, i got a copy of my transcript today. my class rank is exactly 8/486</p>

<p>At my kid’s HS … from Naviance … </p>

<p>4 out of about 12 candidates with SAT between 1700 and 1800 were accepted (none below 1700) … not bad</p>

<p>5 out of about 50 candiates with SATs 1800 or below were accepted … and two of those look like special cases … so not very good chance here</p>

26

<p>is the top one nyu and bottom bc?</p>

27

<p>yes … sorry about that</p>

<p>4 out of about 12 NYU candidates with SAT between 1700 and 1800 were accepted (none below 1700) … not bad</p>

<p>5 out of about 50 BC candidates with SATs 1800 or below were accepted … and two of those look like special cases … so not very good chance here</p>

28

<p>alright that makes more sense. at my school, the average SAT for accepted to BC was like 2000 and NYU was about 2100 =&lt;/p>

29

<p>I like the naviance scatterplits because it shows the range of scores schools seem to accept … some have pretty tight ranges … others seem to accept folks across a broader range of scores … this is something looking at averages will not show!</p>

30

<p>Yeah I agree with you there, but not enough people from my school have applied to NYU or BC for me to get some good numbers.</p>

<p>bumping is fun…</p>

<p>i got my SAT up to 1910, does that help at all? Also, Im retaking the SAT again in December for the last time</p>
