SAT will let students pick which scores to show colleges
High school students seeking to put the best shine on their college applications will soon be able to choose which of their SAT scores to share with admissions officers and which to hide.
The new policy, starting with the class of 2010, will allow students to take the widely used college entrance exam multiple times without admissions officers seeing their less-than-stellar efforts. Now, colleges receive scores of all the times a student attempted the dreaded test, whether the results were spectacular, mediocre or worse. Students will have more control over their scores which will make the test experience more comfortable and less stressful.
The SAT, which takes three hours and 45 minutes to complete, has three sections -- math, critical reasoning and writing -- and a perfect score of 2400 requires earning an 800 on each part. Colleges typically use the test results as a uniform way to compare students who come from schools across the nation with varying grading policies and curricula. Grades, recommendations, extracurricular activities and other factors also figure into the admission selection process.
Under the new policy, students who take the SAT or the supplemental SAT subject exams multiple times will be able to decide whether to let colleges see one, some or all of their scores. There is no extra charge, and students must opt into the program online or on the telephone; otherwise all scores will be shared.
Visit www.collegeboard.com for additional information.
Tips for College Essays
(Compiled from comments of college counselors from all over the world)
The student should write about something he/she cares about. Proofread! Proofread! Proofread! It can be about the most mundane subject, but I want to see your reflection in the essay.
If you are writing about an influential person, use the essay as an opportunity to see your personality reflected through the prism of that person. Why are you different than you would have been if you hadn't known the person?
Tell about yourself through a story/anecdote. Allow plenty of time to write a first draft, proof multiple times for edits, and finalize essay (don't even THINK about waiting until the night before the deadline)
Don't write on a topic that "sounds" impressive. Write in a style that reflects who you are. Don't write about your summer trip to Israel or any event that you know that 5 of your friends could write about.
Make sure that the essay could only be written by you. You must present a personal perspective that allows colleges to view an aspect of you that is not reflected elsewhere in your application.
The opening sentence needs to "grab" the reader. An imaginative opening will get their attention.
Be sure to focus on the "why" of an experience, not the "what." Those essays that reveal an intellectual epiphany are rare - but impressive. For those who find their intellectual passions while in high school and somehow tie it to their collegiate goals, that'll impress any sound admissions counselor. (Brown)
Above all, be yourself. Good writing is lean, progressive, imaginative, grounded in specifics, energized by apt verbs, and respectful of the reader's intelligence.
Go for depth rather than breadth, answer the question, write about something you care about, use the essay to explain a problem, illustrate an interest, be sincere, be interesting, and proofread.
DON'T write a glorified list or a travelogue or blame others for your situation. Focus on a specific idea, not a generality (like taking a picture and focusing on one specific part of the picture)
Be clear, concise, and insightful. 1. Own it. 2. Keep it short. 3. Make one point well. 4. Do not use a thesaurus. 5. Like it.
Share the essay with someone, preferably an English teacher, to catch the minor syntax things you don't catch because you know what you meant to say.
Be yourself, write your own essay, use your own voice and have a little fun with it. It is not a book report. Remember, someone is going to be reading yours, alongside 80 - 100 other essays that day and the same for the next 12 weeks.
