@Rossco9 no it's a place holder for my December score (will update when that score comes out) Thanks @wunderwoman. Good luck to you! @Misslemonde I applied to Duke with my 157 and got in with that score.

So how long/how much prep did you invest in to get that 157 score? Do you mind sharing your various score increases from beginning to end?

How did UT tell you that they were offering you no scholarship money? Did they send you an email? Because I feel like I'm not going to get a scholarship, but I'm wondering if they're going to tell me that or if I'm supposed to just surmise it on my own?
