<p>i got a 740 in the writing section but i scored a terrible 610 in the verbal section, should my writing score help to outweigh my verbal score, any and all input negative and posistive would be appreciated</p>
<p>no; but 610 is not bad, it's pretty good. where are you applying to.</p>
<p>P.S. most coleges don't really care about writing most. Ivy's some do some dont but they dont know to much about it.</p>
<p>i think colleges will take the 740 writing in consideration but it definitely wont replace the 610 verbal</p>
<p>A lot of things we are seeing - scholarship applications, tuition waivers etc - they have minimum required scores that are based on CR and Math only. The writing seems to be not merely less important but totally diregarded in almost every case. My D also had a much higher writing than CR score. So based on our observations I would say the writing score will probably not outweigh the CR score.</p>
