<p>Usually people with low SAT scores had either a very very good reason they had them, or they had a remarkably high GPA. If you don't have a high GPA, there's still a small chance that your Personal Statement will resonate with the person that's reading it, especially now since one person reads your entire application (previously it was 3 different people).</p>
<p>can you state any reason they might have been accepted.
Yeah. One of my friends was Valedictorian and took around 10 APs. Her SAT score was around 1700. I know someone else with a 16_ _ with around 3.6 with just about every AP under her belt. She had OK EC's. IDK, random.</p>
