How important are SAT scores?
This depends on the college. Check with the admissions office of the colleges you are interested in. Remember, even within a college, the accepted level of SAT score varies with the intended major. A student seeking admission to a college’s journalism program may not need as high Math scores as a student applying to the same college’s engineering program. But the verbal score of an English major would play more into his admissions than might the verbal score of a Physics major. It is best to do a little research about the schools and area of study you are interested in.
