<p>So, I got my SAT II scores : Maths II 800 / Physics 710.
Can that score disadvantage me ??
I was thinking about explaining (in the additional information section) why I got such score : International student, the topics are different from those we study in school and I only got 2 weeks to prepare, I had to prepare for 6 school exams right before the SAT ( 1 exam per day, really!)
would it make a difference if I explain ??</p>
<p>It is below the 25th percentile for admitted students, but you definitely would not be rejected because of that score.</p>
<p>I’m an international student aswell and I got the exact same scores as well as 730 in chemistry. It does have a lot to do with the difference in syllabus so I shouldn’t worry about it :)</p>
<p>I also think you shouldn’t explain your ‘reason’. It comes across as almost an excuse which could bite you in the foot.</p>
<p>Explaining that would he a waste of space.</p>
<p>If you want, you can try to retake in Jan.</p>
