<p>I took the SAT w/ writing back in June I believe. I got a really low score, a 1370. I want to know how much this will affect my chances of getting accepted, and how much it would affect my chances of getting a WUE "scholarship" deal for out of state. A majority of the colleges want a 1100 or higher but without writing my score is only a 890. I'm taking the SAT again this Saturday (10/5) and I hope to get a "passing" score. I have studied so hard but I'm just not good with tests. My GPA is decent (3.8) and I am involved in a lot of extracurricular activities. My problem is that according to my school "over 50% of students have a 4.0 GPA or higher." All the colleges I've applied to are out of state and public.</p>
<p>Your SAT score does affect your chances, based on what schools you may be applying to. However, there are plenty of (WUE) schools that find 1370 acceptable. And with a small improvement even more would be within your range.</p>
<p>So relax, and good luck on your test on Saturday!</p>
<p>For most schools that require SAT/ACT, your score would be one of the main factors in the admission process.</p>
