2100-The Border

Test Preparation SAT Preparation

<p>What do you think is the border between smart and really smart for SAT scores? I used to think it was 1800-1900 (smart but not good enough), but my friend was telling me how it was around a 2100, that this score was not that attractive enough for, say, Berkeley. </p>

<p>BTW, I’m not relating these scores to the Ivies here…most likely Berkeley because I’m obsessed about getting into that school. I know this question specifically relates to whatever college you’re referring to, but I was just wondering what you thought.</p>

<p>i"m not an expert on SAT metrics, but 2100 in-state seems pretty good. How’s your GPA? If it’s very high then you’re covered. If it’s low then you might need to ace SAT.</p>

<p>I think that 2100 + or - 50 points perhaps.</p>

<p>I’d always been told that 2100 is the “threshold”… that is, once you hit 2100, HYPS won’t throw your application out automatically, lol.</p>

<p>Don’t know how true that is, but it’s the rule of thumb most kids at my school use.</p>

<p>My GPA’s almost perfect. No worries there.</p>
