What is your definition of a bad SAT score that could potentially get you rejected from your college of choice?

Either bad altogether or in every section.

To ruin my chances of getting into my school of choice?  I would have personally said anything less than about 680 would be no good.  But... clearly that wasn't the case, since I got in with lower marks in my reading and writing.  I did well in my math one's though.

what's your score??
I got a 620 on critical reading, 600 on math, and 650 on the essay. I don't think they're too horrible, I was just curious as to what people had to say.

i got a 570 on critical reading, 510 on the essay and 400 on math. but that was good enough to get me into 5 colleges, including the one of my dreams, so im not complaining.
