Your SAT scores

Colleges and Universities A-Z Harvard University

<p>I am applying for Fall 2011 and am an international. Here are the scores I am applying with:</p>

<p>SAT Reasoning:
750M (770), 730CR, 800W - 2280 (2310 Super-score) - my math scores a shame, I have distinctions in international maths competitions</p>

<p>SAT Subject Tests:
800 Math II
800 Physics</p>

<p>So what SAT scores were you accepted with?</p>

I’d say your scores are in the range for Harvard, but if you are Asian, perhaps you should take some “non-math & science” SAT IIs, unless you are a science freak and are confident that you can bstand out among all the other Asian science freaks
(I’m Asian too, so I’m not trying to offend anybody by saying this)</p>

<p>They look great, but don’t you need two additional SAT II’s for Harvard plus the Math Level II? I’d suggest the Literature one, its pretty much an extended CR section.</p>

<p>^ No, Harvard requires only two Subject Tests.</p>

<p>The Literature test is significantly more difficult than the CR section of the SAT Reasoning Test.</p>

<p>Your SAT scores are perfectly within the ranges - no need to worry about them! I was an international applicant too and got in with 2230 (800 math, 740 W, 690 CR), 800 French, 770 math II and 690 physics. At that point I think you should focus more on your summer activities + your essays :)</p>
