Unbalanced SAT and ACT

Applying to College
1

<p>My SAT and ACT scores are highly unbalanced. For the SAT, my total was a 2120, but the verbal and writing were very high (740 and 770, respectively) and the math was very low (610). Also, for the ACT, my composite was a 30 with a 26 math, 29 science, 32 reading and 33 english.</p>

<p>How much will the unbalanced nature of my test scores negatively affect my application? Do colleges prefer the same composites with more balanced subscores? I am humanities oriented, as my grades and activities show, but will my senior year math grades, which are an A+ in AP Stat and an A in AP Calc, make up for the lackluster math scores?</p>

<p>You should be okay if it is clear that you want to pursue your interest in the humanities. The high school math classes will look good in your application file.</p>
