...what did everyone else get when they were sophomores? i mean, the scores have to be a little lower because we're not yet upperclassmen, right?

straight from the stanford website:
While the majority of our strongest candidates have an unweighted GPA between 3.6 and 4.0 as well as SAT verbal/critical reading and math scores of at least 650

I got a projected score of like 600 for math, 610 for writing and...um...650 for critical reading...

C'mon, Alix, don't beat yourself up over this. Seriously. These aren't tests of your intelligence. They test your ability to reason, and not very well I might add. They aren't very good for seeing how smart you are, and you are a FUCKING GENIUS, believe me. It doesn't matter. Trust me.

i have no idea how "intelligent" i am.

but i can tell you one thing, i kick major ASS at reasoning.

NOW tell me why i did so poorly.

Because the SATs aren't good tests. They aren't good at telling what you're good at, because so many external factors affect a person's ability to score high or low. Trust me, it's not a really big deal. You have just as much chance as you did before you took them of getting into Stanford, though I really can't imagine why you'd WANT to...aside from bragging rights, of course, but to each his own.

ya hun, i bet you did a shit load better than me... my parents haven't even let me look at mine yet. they have to discuss them between themselves first. feel lucky

[cupcake_smuffer]

robyn don't even. tell me you're score and then pay me like, 50 bucks. i'm betting on this.

[robynchowchow]

ready to pay me a bunch of money? cuz i did much worse than you did. 64 for critical reading (a projected 590-720) 64 for math (a projected 580-720) and 65 for writing skills (a projected 540-700). i do all my homework but you are so much smarter than i am. those scores say goodbye columbia. you did better than i did, i jsut fessed up to it, so now you owe me money.

i only posted this at all because this post was so long ago that no one will read it except MAYBE you, who i trust to know these things
