[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW, I totally low balled my SAT scores to my friends in high school. I didn't want anyone to know; didn't want to be embarrassed if everyone had higher expectations of me and I didn't live up. I actually got my wchool's higest score that year and I lied even to my BF and said it was 200 points lower tha it was. If you're not a troll, OP, you really don't know this kid, and you DO give off a creepy, resentful vibe. On a related note, my not stellar HS BF got into Johns Hopkins undergrad with a not particularly preview GPA and a mediocre SAT. They invited him to interview and literally told him in the interview view that what stood out the most was his chutzpah in applying when he clearly wasn't typical Hopkins material. He got in.[/quote] So the winning strategy is to apply when clearly not qualified and that will get you in? More students should try. [/quote]
