[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1410 SAT, 4.0 unweighted, 4.7 weighted.  MCPS.  Wants to stay somewhat local with more than 4000 undergrads.

UMD, UVA, W&M, American, Pitt, Delaware, UMBC, GMU[/quote]

Is he/she submitting scores?[/quote]

Not taking SAT again? DD has same grades in MCPS and SAT is 150+ higher

some people aren't test takers you know and frankly a 1410 is plenty good enough to get into all of those schools, and more.[/quote]

Once you are over 1400 you are fine, especially if you are over 700 in each. No need to retake at that level.[/quote]

Nope. My kids are applying out of FCPS publics. Common wisdom is white or Asian students out of then DMV who aren’t hooked should aim for a 1500/34 ACT. Has been that way for both my kids. That’s when the number is good enough to move on.

Does this rule (“over 1400 you are fine “) hold for schools like Tulane and Wake Forest/ W& M out of state?[/quote]

No.[/quote][/quote]
