<p>I am taking my first SAT this Oct. I am a sophmore and I will apply as a junior transfer. I planned on applying to Rice, Georgetown, Chicago, Northwestern, and some liberal arts schools if I score above a 1300. Now I am unsure if a 1300 is good enough. How do you guys think my SAT score will be viewed as a college student? Any different than a HS student? Your thoughts on the score I need would be appreciated.</p>
<p>I feel as if 1300 is a minimum. Try to score above 1350 though.</p>
<p>But SAT has changed so…try to score above 650 on all three of them</p>
<p>At schools such as Cornell, it is part of the file so you’d need to take it if you haven’t taken it before (unless you have other standardized-test scores). However, they have less importance in transfer admissions than in freshman admissions. For top schools such as the ones you’ve mentioned, a higher score can’t hurt. ;)</p>
