My proudest time in my life

To get into college, I need GPA, SAT or TOEFL. I was so worried about my college. My GPA is so low. I was not sure about my SAT score. I took 5 SAT tests. When I took first time, I just went to test place to know how the test look like. I only solved math questions. In critical reading section, I just pick any number and slept. Mr. Lee told me that SAT likes simple sentences. So I choose shortest answers for writing section. I got 640 on math, 330 on critical reading, and 380 on writing. I got 1350 total. When I saw my score first time, I was so surprised that I got this score. But when I asked my classmates, my score was similar to my classmates. Even though I didn’t study math, I got 640. I was so proud of myself. I studied hard on every sections especially math. Most schools that I researched don’t require TOEFL if international student took SAT. One of student who got into college told me that official tests are so important such as SAT or TOEFL. Colleges also see GPA. But if people who have a low GPA got high SAT score, the colleges will consider because levels of school are different. Some school gives students good grade without hard work, but some schools are not. Mr. Tessen also told us that to get into good college we need to have whether got high GPA or got high scores on SAT. I know that my GPA is too low, so I studied hard to get good SAT score. On my second SAT, I got around 1450. On my third SAT, I got around 1600. On my fourth SAT, I got around 1700. On my last SAT, I got around 1800. I am planning to apply most of my colleges in common app. In common app, I can choose good scores. My best score on math is 740. My best score on critical reading is 530. My best score on writing is 590. I can make 1860 on common app. I checked my final score in PC room in Korea. When I saw this score, I could feel my heart pumping so fast. When I calculate this total, I screamed. Even though people who were there looked at me, I was so happy. I took my cell phone and called my father and mother. When I told my scores to my father, I could feel his feeling. He looked so happy. I attended SAT academy in last summer. We took test every Monday. They send my score to my father every week. I really studied hard in academy, but I got bad grade on my tests in academy. My friends were in the lowest level class. I wanted to study with them. When I went up, I didn’t study. I just slept. So on next test, I picked any number to stay with my friend. So my father didn’t express his feeling, but I could see his real feeling. So I promised him that I will get 1800 on SAT. When I got this score, I thought that anyone can get this score. Even I got 1800, so I thought everyone can get this score. But whenever I asked people, they told me 1800 on SAT is not bad. My proudest time in my life is when I saw this score.
