I took the SAT II this mourning.
I 'm sure I can get a 800 both on Math and Physics. But I didn't do very good on Writing.
If my score were only more than 600, is it still possible fot me to get admitted to the top universities,such as Harvard or MIT or Cornell?

Probably not. You need at least a 700 to be competitive at those colleges.

I reccomend Cliffs writing preperation guide. It is not published anymore, but you can buy it used off the internet (amazon.com). I raised my score from a 590 to a 740! It offers concise review material and 5 practice tests. Within a week you can raise your score tremendously.

Good Luck
