<p>Spring Semester</p>
<p>I’m studying abroad in the Dominican Republic. 15 weeks @ PUCMM. Earning 15 credits. </p>
<p>Let me know if I’m aiming to high.</p>
<p>My Safety Schools are Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and SUNY Binghamton.</p>
<p>NYU <em>strongly recommends</em> submitting two SAT II scores. I would suggest taking those, as well as giving the SAT another shot. I know WUSTL says they won't acknowledge the score, but I spoke with an advisor at NYU and was told that one should submit a score, even if taken during college, if it is likely to make their application stronger.</p>
<p>As for the others, I think they all pretty much accept SAT scores taken during college. </p>
<p>You've got real safety schools which is good. Um...as of now, with your current stats, I don't really think you'll be accepted at NYU, Cornell, WUSTL, or Georgetown. But they are always worth a shot, and better scores (along with SAT II scores) could really change things up for you.</p>
<p>I'm 20 years old. Can I even take the SAT again? </p>
<p>I might feel a little awkward. You know being in a class full of high school juniors. People say I look a lot older. I might shave off my mustache or something. :-p </p>
<p>I would only do well on the Spanish SAT II. Maybe Math Level 1. I don't take Calculus until next year. I'm in precalculus now. How hard is the literature. </p>
<p>I'm leaving to go to DR in January. So I would have to take this on December 2nd. That's rough.</p>
<p>Hey, don't sweat it. I took it recently (19 yrs old) but I still look quite young, so people thought I was just in high school :D</p>
<p>Shave or somethin...Math Level 1 wasn't too bad, but the curve is killer. If you haven't taken Calc, I'd probably stick with level 1. I hear Lit is pretty tough, but I don't know from personal experience.</p>
<p>I thought US History was pretty easy. Just got Barron's and read through it once - ended up with 740...decent. I'm guessing it's probably one that people are most familiar with and will have the easiest time learning in a short period of time.</p>
<p>Well just give it your best shot. I'd always <em>shoot</em> for the best score possible, but I think a 2100+ looks pretty good for those schools. Don't stop there though if you can get higher! :D</p>
