[quote=Anonymous]The direct mail sent by colleges is completely absurd and seems designed to try to increase applications, even from students with no chance of admission, simply to decrease the % accepted" rate to look more selective. So I would absolutely disregard having received it, some schools send to every student who took the PSATS in a given year it seems. OR they use a very low cutoff. Those SATs are close to what is required at schools like Carnegie Mellon or PSU unless there is some very specific hook (or for instance great math scores and applying to engineering at a place like CMU but they would still want verbal and writing to be quite a bit higher than 500).
