Answer 1

i have been out of hs for 4yrs now ao i am not sure of the new testing ranges for the SAT. when I took it, it was out of 1600 but now I know that rhey have a writing section.. so i cant help you on the SAT part.

as far as the ACT, my scores werent too hot but I got into almost all the colleges that I applied to including some top colleges..but this was due to the fact that my gpa was really high and i had a lot of extra-curricular activities... my suggestion would be to re-evaluate ur realistic chances of getting onto college... like ur gpa, activities, volunteer work , etc... and ur may need to sit down with ur guidance counselor and look at the schools requirments and see where u stand... worst case scenario... u could go to a reg college and do really well the first year and transfer to one of ur top choices... always an option...

and to ur question... the sat/act, in my opinion are not good tests... how can one single test measure a students success in college???

good luck with college

Answer 2

Well my scores got me into all my top choices...so no they're not a big waste of time and money.

And I hope you were kidding about the Harvard joke...every Ivy League school will immediately trash your application if you don't have at least a 2000 on your SAT
