Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Everybody's saying that I have low SAT scores so what if I don't send them? Would I have a better chance? I'm planning to apply ED btw</p>

<p>Here are my Stats:
11 honors total
4 AP classes (took Com. Sci. A sophomore year and got a 3)
also taking AP Euro, AP French and AP English this year</p>

<p>~weighted gpa : 4.2 unweighted: 3.8
weighted rank: 23/309 unweighted: 13/309</p>

<p>~SAT (highest scores combined): Reading: 660 Math: 660 Writing: 610 = 1930
SAT II: Unknown yet
ACT: Unknown yet (assuming 28-32)</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:
~JV Tennis as freshman/sophomore & Varsity Tennis as Junior/Senior
~Key Club (service club) : >100 hours
awarded "golden member award" at district convention
ran for officer position every year but was never elected into a official position, but my adviser made me "Special Projects Manager" for my efforts and activity in the club..
~Fencing Club ...I.also technically have an "officer" position (our club isn't very big but a couple of students and I stayed with it until the following yr and got "officer" positions)
~French Honors Society- elected Historian
~National Art Honors Society
~National Honors Society
~also did some violin from October to June of last year and it was the first time I've ever played an instrument (is this worth noting????)</p>

<p>Lastly I'm confident about my teacher recommendations and pretty confident about my essays</p>

<p>Your SAT score is not bad (although it’s not great either). A 1930 will put you in the bottom 25% of students who submitted scores. These lower scores are usually reserved for athletes, legacies, and future broadway stars. </p>

<p>However, if you choose not to submit your scores then you should be very confident in the other aspects of your application. It’s a tricky business. If you think that your scores don’t reflect your abilities, then don’t send them. </p>

<p>It should be noted that Bowdoin is a wonderful college that prides itself on the diversity and individuality of its students. An essay can make all the difference in the world…just something to think about.</p>
