3.78 and 168--advice on schools

Post by ninjasrule » Sat Oct 30, 2010 7:43 am

First: should I retake? I had a cancel before this one.

My reach is: Columbia, Georgetown.
I would like to attend UT-Austin.

if you would like to attend UT Austin, your numbers can get you in. columbia's a bit of a stretch. georgetown is possible.

as for retake, how did you feel about the test coming out? did you feel you messed up a game or a passage? if you did, then maybe you can score higher. but if you felt great and 168 was what you were PTing then, reconsider?

Hello numbers twin. In addition to two regional, lower ranked schools for my preferred region, I would apply to every school you're interested in from U Chicago on down. You should be able to get in to at least one.

Your softs will come in to play for many of those schools. Hope we have awesome cycles.

And I can't recommend retaking a 168. Stupid logic games arbiter. :cry:

Thanks for telling me not to re-take. I definitely don't think it is worth the stress. It is my PT average.

If it's your PT average, don't retake.

GULC is probably not happening. Apply to Mich, but it's a long shot.

I had a 168/3.75 and I got into Texas and Vandy with a little over half rides at each.
