So what're my chances? Should I even bother?

<p>Rank 10 out of 600</p>

<p>My SAT scores are as followed:</p>

<p>Critical Reading 570<br>
Math 740<br>
Writing 630</p>

<p>January:</p>

<p>Critical Reading 510<br>
Math 690<br>
Writing 670</p>

<p>June:</p>

<p>Critical Reading 540<br>
Math 710<br>
Writing 620</p>

<p>Subject Tests:</p>

<pre><code>Literature 570

Mathematics Level 2 640

Physics 590
</code></pre>

<p>GPA W = 4.0
GPA U = 3.85</p>

<p>Leaving some details out just in case...</p>

<p>You should always bother: you’ll never know unless you try.</p>

<p>my daughter has the same stats as you do and she applied to Princeton and Yale because you never know …</p>

<p>how’re your ECs?</p>

<p>How are you preparing for your SAT’s? It’s interesting that your scores never improved (and actually got worse). You need to get the scores up for a fighting chance. Perhaps give the ACT a try?</p>

<p>Taking the ACTs and Math 1, Math 2, and Physics Subject Tests in December</p>

<p>My EC’s consist of mainly 2-3 years of some community service project clubs</p>

<p>Sorry, pal, but unless you cured cancer or AIDS or served as a foreign diplomat, you’ve got to get those SAT scores up.</p>

<p>Well I have found a cure, but I just haven’t documented it or released it in a scientific journal of any sort as of yet.</p>

<p>Must this event be publicly declared in order to receive credit for my discovery?</p>

<p>if you are being serious…(?) talk about it; did you do research?</p>

<p>if not…haha</p>

<p>Obviously not, but I do participate in private research that I keep for personal records.</p>

<p>I hope to one day express these findings in a form most appropriated.</p>

<p>definately mention it though</p>

<p>You could try but the odds are heavily stacked against you</p>

<p>You ask for help but withhold 9/10ths of your info. </p>

<p>Good luck in the admissions process.</p>

<p>So I got rejected from my top 8 schools…yeah…</p>

<p>LOL.</p>

<p>t e n c h a r</p>

<p>What do you expect, you got a 500/600 on some parts of the SAT!</p>
