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

<p>Wow, this is pretty scary.</p>

<p>Average of 3.9? Seriously?</p>

<p>I have an unweighted 3.84, weighted 4.53.</p>

<p>Does that pretty much put me out of contention for the ivies and other top schools?</p>

<p>So far, I’ve gotten 790 on my chem SAT and 202 on my sophomore PSAT. I’m not worried about my ability to score well on the SAT’s/AP’s. I also have decent EC’s.</p>

<p>But looking at all the insanely high GPA averages, I’m getting pretty worried with my 3.84. Seems like all the top colleges have an average of 3.9+… Do these people just never get B’s?</p>
