Should I retake the SAT for a better chance?

<p>Hi,
Is it OK to have a 1790 SAT and a 33 ACT on the same Application? I seemingly cannot do well on the SAT…</p>

<p>DOO IITT, what have you got to lose? (answer is money and a whole saturday)</p>

<p>But assuming if I don't retake it, will the low SAT score hurt my chances for admission compared to my ACT score? (ACT 33 = SAT 2220-2270) Also, I HATE x 10000000 the SAT because it corrodes my intelligence. :)</p>

<p>Which UC are you aiming for? Lol I didn't like the SAT either, the questions on there are more of a you know it or you don't, which is too hit or miss for my liking, the ACT gave you more of a conventional approach, as in you can solve through it.</p>

<p>I want to aim for Berkeley, but I don't know with my other stats...

<p>I just hope my 33 will redeem my 3.95 UC GPA... :)</p>

<p>^Yah but just because you have high stats, I wouldn't be too sure I'd get in to Berkeley...<i'm just="" basing="" this="" on="" fellow="" classmates="" who="" got="" rejected="" to="" berkeley="" &="" la="" similar="" stats.=""></i'm></p>

<p>*So make sure your E.C. list is amazing; your community service is outstanding; and your essays are off the charts..!</p>

<p>You might get in with some sweet affirmative action ;)
I don't like AA, but I have observed it in the works with some peers at my high school.</p>

<p>Sadly, I don't think AA would work for me (if the UC's do it in secret)... I'm Chinese, which is probably the worst race to be for AA. XD</p>

<p>LOL! Yeah I'm pretty much in the same position as you, too bad. :(
Well let me get the stats from some people who got into berkeley and show you. Why don't you IM me on AIM or something? Makes it a bit easier.</p>
