Wide gap in SAT sections

Harvard class of 2020 SCEA applicant here.
I took the SAT once and got a 2230. While the overall score seemed strong enough not to
destroy me, I’m having last minute worries
about my math score (630), which is well
below average. The other two sections were
both 800s. Is the math score enough to
prevent me from getting a second glance?

I’ve also submitted 2 SAT II scores: US History (800) and Lit (760).

Not every admitted student is a math-geek. It would seem from your test scores that you’re more of a humanities person, and I’m sure Admissions will take that under consideration.

That was my perception, but it’s always nice to have a more objective opinion. Thank you!
