So how important are SATs really? Enough to override a low GPA?

<p>I’m surprised Hernandez said taht, it’s not true at most schools and at Dartmouth 40% of the class of '12 was their high school’s val or sal.</p>

<p>Luminouzz, it’s about rank, not GPA, even at schools that don’t officially rank. Different numbers mean way different things at different schools. For ivies you need to be top 10% at highly competitive schools, top 5% at competitive schools and very top of the class at average schools in general if you don’t have a hook.</p>
