will these sat I/satI I/AP scores limit my chances at any school?

Test Preparation
1

<p>ok so here are my scores:</p>

<p>SAT I
Overall: 2280
W: 760 - 12
CR: 800
M: 720</p>

<p>SAT IIs
Math II: 770
Chem: 770
USH: 710</p>

<p>APs
Spanish Lang: 4 (soph year, rest are junior year)
Calc AB: 5
Eng Lit: 5
Chem: 5
USH: 4</p>

<p>I was wondering whether you guys thought these test scores would limit me from getting into top schools. the sat IIs are good, but 710 in USH isn't great. I know I could do better on the sat math because I got 5 wrong and got a 720, but I'm sure my other scores will go down. I'm considering retaking the eng lit sat II because I got a 680, but I felt like I could have done better if I studied more. thoughts?</p>

<p>Stop stressing. Your scores are fine. If the rest of your app is strong you should be in the running pretty much anywhere.</p>

3

<p>I was just a little worried that the 710 on USH and the 720 on sat I math were a little low for ivy and stanford caliber schools.</p>

4

<p>Problematic only at Harvard and Yale. You're fine elsewehere if u have the grades, etc. (Since u took USH SAT and English AP, I'm assuming you're not interested in MIT.)</p>

5

<p>actually I am interested in MIT for the great sceintific research possibilities there, but I think a 720 in SAT math will hold me back there. MIT is really the only reason I'm considering retaking the SAT, but I'm hoping the 5 on AB calc and the 770 in SAT II math show that I'm better than that 720 on the SAT.</p>

6

<p>Ummm this is rather off topic but will colleges look at the SATI Math section and the SAT II MathIC (not IIC) as pretty much the same thing?</p>

7

<p>I thought that a better math sat II made up for an ok sat I math score.</p>

8

<p>yeah, that is what im hoping...is it true? will colleges look at sati and satii math as the same thing?</p>

9

<p>Just take the AP Calculus and get a 5.</p>

10

<p>so AP calc 5 + sat II math 750+ will mitigate a math sat score in the low 700s?</p>

11

<p>AP calc you definitely need BC and try to get that satIIc into at least a 790 if not 800</p>

<p>everything else like the 710 USH is probably fine</p>

12

<p>You're not going to be able to take the BC Calculus test until the end of your senior year, right? Therefore, it is irrelevant in terms of admissions.</p>

13

<p>You pretty much need at least a 790 on SAT II for MIT.</p>

<p>Also, although the SAT I math is low, it isn't incredibly bad. I have no idea whether you should retake the SATI...</p>

<p>Your APs are good.</p>
