Haha it's so frustrating having to wait!! I've applied to Leeds, Liverpool, Cardiff, Bath Spa and Sheffield Hallam. Got an offer from Bath and just acknowledgement emails from the others so far but I only sent it on Tuesday! What about you?

What's your definition of a not good SAT score? because my school's definition is extremely skewed... if we don't have a 1400+ it's basically a bad score.


Well, I heard the average is 1000. I havent taken it yet. But I thinka good score would be a 1400 too.It really depends on how difficult the actual test is. My opinion will probably change once I take it.

Depends, when I took it, the reading section was incredibly hard and the other sections were ok...

Take some mocks, it helps to a certain extent :tongue:
