hi. My heart is set on applying for Johns Hopkins University. I'll be applying there Early Decision. Of course I will be retaking the SAT again in October. But with my current sat and sat II scores, could someone tell me what my chances are like? Also, does JHU take a good look at your SAT IIs? They don't give you time to retake that one in November.
SAT I 1350
Math IIc: 740
Physics: 670
Writing: 600

How much weight do you think my writing score will have? Thanks for anyone's input.

Your SAT-1 is less than the average for admitted freshmen, but not by much. The writing SAT-2 isn't going to help any, but isn't a deal-breaker. Your GPA, strength of academic load, recs, ECs, and essay are going to be as (or more) important as SAT 1 or 2.
