How bad is my SAT score?

Question

On a scale from 1-10, how bad are my scores? I know they're pretty bad, but I need to know how much to improve them. I want to get into Saint Lawrence University so please help!!! But, I can also take it again (and I plan to) because I'll be a senior next year.

CR-560

Math-530

Writing-610

But, of course, they dont really look at the writing....WHY AM I SO STUPID?!?!

Answer 1

About a 5, not horrid, but you ain't getting anywhere good.

Answer 2

To be honest, not great but not horendous either. 5.

Answer 3

1090 isn't bad. the average is 1000 so you actually did pretty good. You won't get into anywhere fantastic but you can get into pretty good schools. all you need to do is study strait vocabulary basically. and you can take it again. SAT scores might be a big part of what colleges look at but there's other things like grades too. i'm sure you'll do better next time.

Answer 4

Those aren't bad scores, especially the writing.  If you really want to improve I would suggest taking a prep class or getting a private tutor.  These are expensive options though.  Otherwise, you could get a study book and work through that.  The more you familiarize yourself with the test the better you will do.  P.S.  They don't just ignore the writing section, they will at least notice that you did well on it.

Answer 5

Well you got an 1180 which isn't terrible but I would study and retake it until you get a 1250 or soor as high as you can. Everytime you take the S.A.T. they take your highest scores for each section and drop the lowest one.
