[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] But let’s be honest, a 1380 SAT doesn’t really match a 3.9 UW GPA. The SAT should be much higher. [/quote] It's well within the range for Penn State and the kid had a strong GPA with rigor. There's no reason for him to submit a higher score as he's clearly ready for college. I suspect, as mentioned, the summer program is a money maker and a way to juggle the number of students on campus.[/quote] It is within range. But OP said her kid had taken through second year Calculus and 14 APs. The SAT score for math alone should be close to 800. Given the kid isn’t a stem kid, the english scores should be very high too. A 1380 is a red flag when compared to the applicant’s other stats. Why is the GPA so high if they can’t crack 1500 on the SAT. Or even 1450. The SAT isn’t that hard for high achieving kids. [/quote]
