<p>gq, im not sure if any of my stuff can be considered a "HOOK."</p>

<p>and im asian, and my score isn't above 2300. so would you say my chances are fairly low?</p>

22

<p>Why are Asians held to higher standards on test scores? Hasn't Princeton made it pretty clear that once your test scores are in range, admission is dependent on other factors such as activities, essays and recommendations?</p>

23

<p>Because asians consistently score an average of 140 points higher than whites?</p>

24

<p>Interesting statistic, arbiter. Where did you get it from?</p>

25

<p>I'm interested in that too.</p>

</p>

<p>ok, so anyone wanna answer this question as well?</p>

<p>if the school doesn't count writing than the higher math and reading solo would be better, if it does than the higher total combined, also i think its better to have a balanced score...</p>

<p>Hate to cite such a flimsy source, but I can't find the original paper I read on it:</p>

<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:1995-SAT-Education.png%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:1995-SAT-Education.png&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>You can find plenty corroborating information from simple Google searches.</p>

<p>Here's another article (more reputable) on this: </p>
