I agree that it really depends on what school you are trying to get into. It's likely that you won't get into Harvard, but I'm sure there are plenty of great schools that you would love that would easily accept a student with a 1300 SAT and 3.0 GPA.

Also if you have time to study and take the SAT again, (there is another one October 1) and you can get your SAT score up at all it would probably help a lot. Good luck!

There is room for improvement, depending on how good of a school you want to go to. But it is do-able to really improve your scores and even your GPA.

I think as long as you keep getting good grades and study for the SAT to try to get your score better you should get into the school you want whichever it is.

I wouldn't say that is bad at all, and it really depends on what school you want to get accepted into whether it is good enough or not.

I've heard that your grades in your junior and senior year are more important to schools than how you did freshman and sophomore year, and the fact that you are in AP classes and doing well in them definitely will look good on any college app.

If you have time to study to raise your SAT scores that will help you a lot though. Most schools weigh your test scores more heavily than your GPA because it is something uniform they can use to compare kids from all over. I have been using prepme's SAT program with a tutor for almost 3 months, and my first score was 1550 and I just took a Practice test last weekend and I got a 1690, so for me it really really helps! You should try their SAT course and see if you like it.
