I thought it was Math and Reading...

I've gotten a few "Express Applications" and all they wanted was the English/Math scores - they totally disregarded the Composite Score.

Babypurin, actually, we got the paper result by mail before they put it online. It seems that you should be fine with these scores.


Yeah! At first, I thought colleges are looking at Reading and Math. I talked to my professor today. His daughter got 31 on the composite score. He said that she got accepted whereever she applied. She already graduated from college this year. She got scholarship througout her program.

He told me that with the composite score of 28 and Math score of 34, my son should be okay. Especially, if they are looking at English and Math, not the Reading/Mathas you mentioned, I will sleep better.

However, he will take it again next week.

For the SAT, my son told me that yesterday exam was pretty easy. He did better than those of other months. For the reading, he followed Jess' technique. It worked. What do you think?

I still haven't recieved my paper scores yet, although seeing how long it took to me to recieve my scores online it isn't quite suprising. I'm still shocked that I recieved a 29 in math - I literally guessed on 10 questions.
