<p>A 770 places you in the running for all the top and highly selective colleges. The SAT alone will not decide your place in a college. That is the beauty of the american system, a few numbers do not indicate your intelligence. Your perfect scores in phy and chem show that you are intelligent. You can either whine and complain about the circumstances surrounding your position or, you can move on and start working on the rest of your application.</p>

<p>You Choose.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot big cheese. I guess I overreacted. But all the other elements of my app suck as well :-/ Should I retake maths? I’m so ashamed to have wasted my parents’ money…</p>

<p>Relax gary, you’ve done well. I don’t think you need to retake the test but, if you actually feel that you can do even better then go for it. Start concentrating on your ECs and essays. Impress the teachers for your recommendations.</p>

<p>Those scores are very good, gary. I don’t think you should re-take for mere 30 points. Instead, as bigcheese said, you can impress them even more with your essays and EC’s.</p>

<p>Chill out gary. I got 770 as well and it isn’t the end of the world :)</p>

<p>770 is 82nd percentile?</p>

<p>GUYS,IM DAMN SCARED…it says check back in 7-10 days…I filled in everything perfectly…I’m sure!!!</p>

<p>Hmmm…maybe they made a mistake and they’re trying to recheck…don’t worry about it, you’ll get your scores soon.</p>

<p>No no sorry that was a bogus call…lol…that message I read was a common one to everyone…i found the right link…2130…I think I’m satisfied…maybe,I’ll retake:)</p>

<p>Good job, smartchap! I think that’s a good enough score :)</p>

<p>And yeah, the math percentiles are crrrazy. gary, at first, I too was really depressed with my score. But then I realized…30 points aren’t gonna make or break me!</p>

<p>well done smartchap !!!</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>And congrats to gary!great SAT 2 scores…I’'ll have to start prepping for those now.</p>

<p>OMG! I seriously think I might’ve failed today’s chem paper :frowning: What would have been the SAT II mishap equivalent of a chem fail at school?</p>
