<p>I just got my SAT II scores back today, and I am extremely concerned I will not qualify for the W&L scholarship.
They were rather bad:
Chem - 660
Lit - 660
Math II - 700</p>
<p>My SAT I scores were:
CR - 670
Math - 740
Writing - 700</p>
<p>I therefore do not have the strongest SAT scores. Would you mind "chancing" me otherwise? Also, should I submit my SAT IIs? It says "recommended," and to question the adage, is it better to let them wonder if I am stupid rather than prove it?</p>
<p>Alright, here goes.

<p>WORK EXPERIENCE -
I work 20 hours a week at a nursing home and referee soccer on the weekends.</p>
<p>I am a fairly good writer, so I feel that my essays will be alright. Teacher recs should be good as well.
I interview well, but I am primarily concerned about this first screening.
Do I even have a chance? Thanks a bunch. :)</p>
