I had only slightly higher than average SAT scoresJul 24 2006Psychology
I had only slightly higher than average SAT scores (1250) but I had great grades and was an IB Diploma recipient. I knew I was fine though my SAT scores were a little lower than average at WM. I applied Early Decision which gives you a little boost and I made it in. I would suggest everyone in a similar situation to apply Early Decision.

I had very good grades/high class rank and a high ACT in high school, but really I just applied here on a whim. I was never caught up in the whole college applications race, and thank god for that, but top students from virginia, particularly guys, should be admitted here, while top female students from out of state could face significant difficulties, as it is tough to get admitted.
