<human>: ... but I really don't see why! There are so many schools that are SAT optional that it doesn't make sense to be upset about SAT scores. And if your dream school isn't SAT optional, then you make sure you keep yourself in the admissions' direct line of vision. And even if you don't get accepted immediately, you can spend your first year somewhere else and then transfer if you keep your grades up.
It really bothers me when people get worked up about their SAT scores and are all "Oh my god, how am I gonna get into college?!" I have a GPA of 71/100, which translates into 1.7 out of 4.0. My SAT scored aren't exactly low, I got a 1950. But colleges care so much more about GPA than SATs, and there are so few GPA optional schools. My chances of getting into a four year college are pretty slim, and it really hurts to see my peers running around like chickens without heads just because their SAT scores aren't incredible.
Sorry if I sound like I'm just complaining, but I really needed to get this out somehow, and whenever I speak to anyone else about it they always say "but your SAT scores are great!" and "you can always just start off in community college!"
And, yes, I can just start in a community college, but my home life is horrible and I really need to get out. A four year college is my best bet. There are some community colleges that offer dorms on either a need-basis (which I unfortunately do not meet) or a first come first serve basis, but it's actually really difficult. Don't get me wrong, I'm working on it, but a four year would be my best bet.

<bot>: I've got a crappy GPA, but a pretty decent SAT score and I need to get into a four year college to escape my bad home life.
