-- Posted by koko at 4:25 am on Nov. 20, 2008 I think I'm going to cry. I'm applying to Social Science majors, but in VERY selective universities and my scores are CRAP. 740 reading, 730 writing but.....610 on math               complete depression. -- Posted by cherryD at 4:27 am on Nov. 20, 2008 It's not bad...right? Other than Math. -- Posted by Bearsy at 4:29 am on Nov. 20, 2008 Social Science majors are such BS. Unless you get a PhD you're going to become a school counselor.   And your scores aren't bad at all. -- Posted by Medevac at 4:31 am on Nov. 20, 2008 610 math isnt bad. i got 610 altogether. out of 2400. :( -- Posted by koko at 4:32 am on Nov. 20, 2008 Quote: from Its Bearsy Bitch at 11:29 pm on Nov. 20, 2008 Social Science majors are such BS.

And I can't do ANYTHING with that math score. STUPID SAT it bugs me so much, I get 90% in Calculus and I have to epic fail at SAT crap. -- Posted by Medevac at 4:33 am on Nov. 20, 2008 Quote: from koko at 4:32 am on Nov. 20, 2008 Quote: from Its Bearsy Bitch at 11:29 pm on Nov. 20, 2008 Social Science majors are such BS.

(I'm doing the subject tests in december...) I'm so depressed, I had worked so hard. And my parents refuse to pay for US college unless it's an ivy league or stanford. So..yeah, great. -- Posted by Bearsy at 4:38 am on Nov. 20, 2008 Uh where the hell do you plan on going to school that a 610 math score is going to discount your GPA/extracurriculars/other two great scores? -- Posted by Lulu Nobody at 5:21 am on Nov. 20, 2008 Quote: from koko at 7:35 am on Nov. 20, 2008 You guys figure I can do an early january reasoning test and rush the scores, or just forget about my applications for this year...

Your parents are douchebags. Sorry, but just because it is Ivy League does not mean it is the only school worth going to.

My parents refuse to pay the 50k price tag (which is insane..financial aid pleasee ) for any school that isn't  better than the University in my city, which is 20th in world rankings and is virtually free for residents. And for the physics major part (someone else mentioned), hah well I hate physics. Chem is fine but physics...shudder! I'm  only applying to Yale, Stanford, Columbia, Princeton, Dartmouth, Harvard and either Brown or Cornell, -- Posted by jennay at 12:21 am on Nov. 23, 2008 Quote: from koko at 7:56 pm on Nov. 20, 2008 Quote: from Lulu Nobody at 12:21 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Quote: from koko at 7:35 am on Nov. 20, 2008 You guys figure I can do an early january reasoning test and rush the scores, or just forget about my applications for this year...     (I'm doing the subject tests in december...)     I'm so depressed, I had worked so hard.     And my parents refuse to pay for US college unless it's an ivy league or stanford.

But if you're wanting a masters, it doesn't really matter where you're going now to get it. Jobs don't really look at what school you got your degree at anyway. -- Posted by koko at 6:12 pm on Nov. 25, 2008 Quote: from breakapart at 3:59 pm on Nov. 24, 2008 the OP knows that her scores are good, but instead of making a topic titled "HEY COME LOOK AT MY SAT SCORES- TELL  ME I IZ SMERT!" it is disguised as a pity fest.     but, i wouldnt have even known whether those scores were good or not had it not been for the replies.  I took the "old" SAT. That is ridiculous. I know my scores are good, but  they just aren't good enough. ''goodness'' is subjective to one's capabilities, effort, desires, goals.. -- Posted by toonkid16 at 12:34 pm on Dec. 6, 2008 well i got a 670 in reading, 740 in math, and 710 in writing, which on the whole is worse than you. but that was in january, when i was a sophomore. so i still have time. -- Posted by jennay at 1:21 pm on Dec. 6, 2008 you obviously just made this thread to brag about your other scores -- Posted by koko at 2:18 pm on Dec. 9, 2008 Yeah, exactly. Getting elegies from unknown teens on scores that I know are good (english ones) is really something I need, its definetly one of my biggest goals in life. -- Posted by jennay at 10:01 pm on Dec. 11, 2008 Quote: from koko at 2:18 pm on Dec. 9, 2008 Yeah, exactly.   Getting elegies from unknown teens on scores that I know are good (english ones) is really something I need, its definetly one of my biggest goals in life. thats kinda sad, but despite your sarcasm it does appear to be the case :/ -- Posted by x Jean Paul x at 3:40 am on Dec. 14, 2008 In good on 740 in math, and 710 in writing.On reading in not good.
