Applying to College
1

<p>is a 1900 ok
?</p>

2

<p>If you come from a low social-economic area then I'd say yeah. But of course, the SAT IIs such as Math IIC need to be high if you want to get into a science major.</p>

3

<p>SO if you are low-income you can get away with a lower SAT score?</p>

4

<p>The middle 50% range for Berkeley:
SAT Reasoning Verbal: 580 - 710 99%
SAT Reasoning Math: 620 - 740 99%</p>

<p>Out-of-state applicants should have pretty high scores (better than 1300 M+V). In-state applicants and those with hooks (minority, low-income, athlete, legacy) should be fine with 1300.</p>

5

<p>I have 1400 M+V (680 M, 720 V) and am low-income but Asian. Will that cut it?</p>

6

<p>Are you in-state?</p>

7

<p>"SO if you are low-income you can get away with a lower SAT score?"</p>

<p>If your entire area is low-income, yes. But most places are pretty economically diverse.</p>

8

<p>If you have over 4.1 weighted and 2030 SAT then you have a good chance.</p>

<p>" In-state applicants and those with hooks (minority, low-income, athlete, legacy) should be fine with 1300."</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure the UCs don't consider legacy or race in admissions</p>

10

<p>Do they accept a lot of kids from the east coast, especially kids with numbers like whoamg said?</p>

<p>I thought the UC system had an index that they use to determine eligibility.</p>

13

<p>Can a 1570/2250 make up for a 3.7 GPA?</p>

14

<p>Yes, it can.</p>

15

<p>wheres the index?!</p>

16

<p>Top 1/2% of class w/ 2000+ = in.</p>

17

<p>UCs don't us racial bias in admissions. They do use socio-economic factors that can boost chances.</p>

<p>true story. My brother is at berkeley right now, as it is welcome week and school for him starts on monday.</p>

<p>Anyway, he got in. He got a 1600 on the new SAT. M + V + W.</p>

<p>His essays were extremely good, so that's how I think he got in. I don't think berkeley really cares about SAT scores.</p>

<p>Someone must have slipped up.</p>

<p>Actually, Berkeley cares a lot about the standardized test scores. Most of the class is filled with people with high stats. However, they do have a percentage of the class who have mitigating circumstances such as OHgiraffe's brother along with the recruited athletes who typically do not have the academic profile as the normal applicants.</p>
