Yes, every school has regional counselors, who should know the best schools in the state (I’m assuming you’re not from MA). Personally, my school is [The Bronx High School of Science - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](Bronx High School of Science - Wikipedia) and the average sat is about 1970 and the cumulative average (our school doesn’t weigh) is about 89. If you were in a normal school, I would bet the average would have to be mid 90s.
